I am doing a rehab and I am considering a spiral staircase.

However, if you have terms in the lease that you do NOT enforce, that tends to result in a downward spiral as the tenant starts to wonder and push the limits if they can break those lease terms, then what other terms can they get away with breaking as well ...

I'm blaming this all on Amanda Han, because her second episode was a few back and it just spiraled from there haha

You can't feed that spiral or you'll never get the property.Owner carry may solve some attachment disorder that may be there but same issue as above - She'll be focused on the depreciation recapture up front (reasonable or not).
