I've only been asked once if I could remove them so the prospective tenant wouldn't have to store them.  

Well if they have some money to invest I offer DFY Ecommerce business, online stores at national retailers Like this one. 

The trip to store well that depends on where u live.

The company helps with the rest of the stuff like rent collection, late payment follow up, advertising vacant units, showings, tenant screening, leasing, renewals, reports, and evictions (which is a corner case).

Someone took six months to build a 1600 sq. ft. 3/2 block house on the vacant corner, without a garage and i got to know her through my neighbor who worked with her before.

Long store short, I have a duplex on a 45 acre farm in rural Virginia.

We had to throw away many items stored down there due to mold growth.

Again, the BiggerPockets store has some books on this topic, or you can learn about it by watching podcasts, reading blogs, and interacting on the forum.

What I think is a valuable tool/person to have in your corner now more than ever is an investment specialist or specifically STR specialist realtor that knows how to underwrite and thus knows how to find a good deal.

Welcome @Kiara SpenceThere's alot of great points mentioned.You'll surely want to understand your budget, narrow your focus/objective, work with a lender/broker that understands your goals and put the right people in your corner to help identify deals.Are you going to reside in your primary and buy the rental?
