The more headaches there will be, the more return people will demand for putting up with the headaches.

While people certainly do get away with renting out each room separately, on individual leases and with more than 3 unrelated tenants per house, it is not technically legal and is a much harder rental strategy than just renting out the house to an existing family.

If you are set on renting this unit, bring a copy of this to the office and demand justification for your rejection.

I have been in several bidding wars on properties that were on the market for over 150 days that now are in high demand.

Well unless the market in your area demands it I certainly would not go out of my way to buy laundry appliances for the vacant unit just to appease a potential tenant .

@Shiloh LundahlThe question is completely dependent on each individuals current situation and future goals.

When in fact he purchased them at a steep discount from a tired landlord who didn't want to have to deal with selling individual properties with tenants in place.

Funny enough I've seen his deals then come through here on the BP marketplace for another 10 - 15k increase from another individual #breakwholesalechain  How do other rehabbers overcome this? 

They are individually parceled.

Recently another BP member was having issues with their agent because they were trying to give offers at 80-90% of value and the agent said they were low balling and demanded a $5000 retainer (or something), plus that they sign an exclusive contract (which I understand is more normal than when I last bought).
