Thanks for the response there.

I asked tenant if he could work with me and to contact me by 10/25/22 but I have received no response.

What are my rights and responsibilities in this situation as a landlord renting out a room in my primary residence?

Yesterday was the first response from a prospective tenant. 

On a positive, 1031X transactions (provided the contingent transaction closes) are generally reliable for sellers.Buyers and brokers will want to note how the contract is written (LLC vs individual) and if necessary align a lender that can close in the appropriate entity. 

Look at your market individually and see what the fundamentals are doing there and act accordingly.

Regardless of the entity (individual or corp) owning the building, it will most likely be placed with a commercial insurance carrier due to the hair salon.

Thank you for the response. 

However, the realtor I previously engaged with mainly focused on assisting individuals in purchasing their homes, not on investment properties (plus, I was also only looking for house as my primary residence, not an investment).

This is an example of how REI is great for everyone and can fit individual needs and wants and there is no one way to make things work in this industry.
