I'm going to copy and paste over there but will be glad to communicate on this one as well.To answer your question, I am pursuing a house to use as my primary residence but will be looking to make it a rental in about three years and then moving on from there.

From all the Ohio posters, it's clear the Ohio REC has communicated their view.

Networking...Communicating with those doing it!..

The day after the rent is due, if you don't have it, and haven't gotten pro active communication from the tenant serve a notice to quit.3.

So here is what I would do if I were you (and I am both a long distance LL and a tenant so I can sympathize with both sides here).First it's good you are venting here and hopefully not to your LL, whatever you do all your communication with the LL/PM needs to be in writing/email so you can document exactly what actions were taken.

My analogy is EDDM is like a shotgun approach - a lot of spillage or wasted communication.

The most important thing is for everyone to be on the same page and to communicate everything very very clearly so that in a few years you can move and the dissolution of the joint venture will be clean, simple, and according to plan.

Mess up the window load, which on a home of this size is going to be well over $40k and you can be looking at an 8 week delay.The most important thing is to find a GC that you feel you communicate well with.

We are very fair and if a tenant has communication with us and notifies us they will be late, then we are lenient at that time.

If you're somewhat familiar with basic contract law, never met a stranger, have been in financial negotiations before, have decent math skills, have good communication skills you can get the basics in a couple weeks of intense, concentrated study.
