Im in seattle and im new to this space... any help would be appreciated

Hi BP,For those who rent out to students.. is there a "best" time to post and start advertising your listing online, and a time I should definitely avoid?

So you would def have them do the application online and fee.

May take a community college/online course.

The other 3/4ths of the property is an investment property and I'll bet they've been declaring rent and depreciating and writing off expenses on it for their period of ownership.

Go to the website for the town> then the Tax Assessor page> then look for a link to online property information databaseThere are several different companies providing this service in MA, so it is easiest to simply start with the town website and go from there. 

If you havent seen it, I bet you it hasnt happened.I would get your lawyer to file a 30 day notice or whatever your state/county has for a lease that is being ended NOW...
