Not that it was needed… multiple inspections since show normal settlement and nothing that indicates a sinkhole.I would like to sell the property for fair market value, however I understand that with the “sinkhole” history the house will sell cash only, 15-20% under market value, since owner/occupiers will have challenges getting insurance and financing.Any ideas how to remove this blemish?

Is an agreement like this normal?

Is this normal?

Payments that you make normally fall into one of 3 buckets100% of the payment can be factored in somewhere on the returnPartial payment can be factored somewhere on the return0% of the payment can be factored in somewhere on the returnHouse-hacking also has considerable tax implications in the event that you want to sell this property.You can potentially defer a portion or all of the gain on the investment property with 1031 exclusion.You can potentially exclude a portion or all of the gain on the personal residence with section 121 exclusion

I would say that most beginners would not normally start with building their own investment property, however that doesn't mean it can't be done!

., typically the recommended answer would be to tell them that you can't do that, and they'd need to pay pro-rated rent like normal and that their security deposit will be held until a move-out inspection can be completed.

I think once things get back to normal and people start to come back to SF Bay Area offices, AZ house prices will start to fall and can fall pretty hard. 

Normally, I'd respond that yes, the Denver and Colorado Springs (and Colorado as a whole) markets are hot but that they're going to continue to be scorching hot for awhile.

Normally the terms of the lease continue aside from rent increases. 

Or maybe they are simply removed as a lead, left on "the list" getting normal monthly newsletters, communications, etc.As long as their is a method to the madness, this is progress in my opinion.
