If you'd like to see what we used, msg me your email and I'll send it along.Some things to consider are not paying until moved out and all keys returned, stating that the property must not be damaged or otherwise change overall condition between signing and vacancy, property must be "broom clean", all possessions left behind are forfeit and will not be held, all tenants regardless of whether they are on the lease must vacate including pets and animals. 

Once every 6 months unless there's a reason to do it more often like suspicion of a lease violation but I tell my tenants when they sign the lease that I do random inspections twice a year or so and its for their benefit so if there's maintenance I need to do, it gets done.

This way the IRS can't challenge your valuation by asserting the other party has treated the transaction inconsistently with your treatment.

Duane Toro is an agent there that does lots of commercial work but I know nothing about him but his name form seeing it on signs. 

Good to have a neighbor signing up!

Likely, your partner will have to sign paperwork to submit the offer.

@Donna Ryngala Any attempt to circumvent owner occupancy agreements - which you will sign at closing - could set you up for a charge of mortgage fraud.I'm not the world's foremost expert on this, but I do believe that the new home must be your primary residence, including being your mailing address.Talk with your lender to be sure you understand the requirements.

Don't be surprised when you're filling out a personal financial statement, that you'll probably be asked to sign a full-recourse loan, etc.

I like to know what I'm getting into before signing up for something is the goal.Thank you for sharing - great to hear the insights.Best,Mchael

My questions is for the next tenant I want to add some things to my lease.1) 2 month rent penalty if they break the lease2) When they sign the lease they pay me damage deposit and 1st month's rent which is non refundable if they break the lease.
