There are number of model lease agreements on the internet you could use that might make the process more efficient.

From a purely modeling POV, if that is not the case, it could mean 2 things: Incorrect modeling; ORYou have an amazing property manager who's killing it!

. :)They usually have a couple of general business models: either smaller up-front-fee for the meter installation with a recurring fee for reading and billing, or a one-time charge for installation, and reading/billing is up to you.as already mentioned, it's actually illegal to sub-meter at a profit in some jurisdictions.

Of the 20% who do posses some knowledge/ experience, 80% are of highly limited levels and in that highly limited comprehension and knowledge of what is admittedly rather advanced level understanding to accurately perceive economic theory and forecasting.

Never change your business model for the person, it weakens your processes and will ultimately cause failure.

at least in my 40 years of doing this.. and creating this model 5 years ago its been the best i have ever seen for safety.there are two kinds of note investors the risk takers looking for the big hit.. and the TRULY passive.. if they want a note rate of 10% thats what they want not more not less and they want consistent payments each month with NO DRAMA... thats a nice note product.

@Bjorn Ahlblad, what model washer/dryer do you have installed?

They even pick on the stainless steel refrigerator bought in 2013, trying to say a larger model is needed. 

Evaluating using SFR model, it looks great on the surface.

Basically, buy an acre of land, run utilities to it, install four prefab (I think 800 Square Feet is the max) park-model homes/tiny homes and then sell 3, keep 1 for rental.
