Possibly to lease to short term renters.

Apparently if you sign a lease as an LLC the landlord can't exactly control who is staying in the apartment because it is under an LLC (Let me know if this isn't true).

About half of it consists of four individual buildings that are leased to various retail tenants.

Another thing near the top of his list is adding value by raising the rents or making improvements interior or exterior.I would also research the local area rents and raise them when the lease is up or if their is a clause that says you can do that with the proper notice. 

Owner would therefore face a large capital gains penalty upon selling the asset.Would it be possible/legal to execute a master lease option with a buyout that is intended to outlive the seller such that they can have fixed income for the remainder of their life, and such that their children can receive stepped basis by inheriting the asset that is already under contract (which was obviously written to be binding upon successor's and heirs).

What I have found works is to state that you will be raising the rent in the lease.

In the beginning expect to travel more often than you may like but once you have a system in place will become less frequent.

We have budgeted a Capex assumption and have solid working year 1 Opex developed with our property manager.But I want to create a Month by month budget for the first year incorporating our construction project timeline (wll be developed during due diligence) and the Expiration schedule on the leases.

My current lease ends in June 2019 and I'd like to have a purchase by then that I can house hack.

One other way to make money is to offer your home as a Lease Option to somebody that has been turned down by a Bank and not knowing their are alternatives and act  like they can pay their bills.
