I’ve seen people use this strategy many times where they might go through 2 or 3 renters and each time they collect the option money.

I plan to collect rent, & the deposit through Cozy.co & also require renter's insurance. 6) Do I (in my case my pm) do the handing of the keys walk-through with the tenent & document everything along with them? 

Wanted some opinions from here about the software others use and like for rent collections, maintenance requests etc.Thanks in advance!

Any lease which allows you to sublet to another could be considered a "sandwich" lease if you're collecting from the subtenant and paying your landlord.

I backed out of the contract but I feel like this is a scam collecting dd money. 

Buyers have dried up in many markets, financing costs have gone up, leverage has gone down, collections risks has skyrocketed; etc.

Once you have your list of contractors in place, and a robust tenant screening and rent collection system, you will be off to the races.

If you were holding the property and collecting rental income monthly, would this change your strategy with the partner?

When we had tenants struggling to make ends meet due to the pandemic, it was a huge relief to pull up their account and see that we had collected that last month's rent in advance in some cases.

Therefore, we have had to hire an attorney each time we've had an eviction, even though I "self manage" and am local.I'm hoping to add my name to the title only, so as the "owner", I can bring these cases to court myself without the need for an attorney.For context, the properties are in Upstate NY.Thank you in advance for your collective thoughts!
