Like you, I was eager to start investing in real estate but decided to hold off until I had more visa security.

First, request the current rent roll, which details each unit’s rental income, lease terms, and any security deposits.

Just talk to securities 7 dealers that do raises for capital for DST's.Cap rates of 3 IS NUTS.

Also, interview at least 10 lenders to secure the best loan terms.

I have prospective tenants who signed a lease on 31st of October and paid security deposit same day.

I look at the tenant's financial situation (income security) as a very important part of the property analysis. 

Due to recent security frauds and banks not covering losses adequately, apps like Zelle may not currently be the best option.

An estoppel certificate is a form you have the tenant sign that confirms their lease start date, the amount of their security deposit, and other things.

Consider a cash-out refinance or a small business loan to fund these repairs and secure the property long-term.

This needs to be highlighted in the lease and acknowledged by them.Security Deposits: You can’t use their security deposit for routine cleaning, but if they leave things in bad shape beyond normal wear and tear, it’s fair game to deduct cleaning costs.I’d start by having a straightforward talk with them about the importance of keeping things clean for health reasons and property preservation.
