You'll need to schedule an inspection with the local public housing authority (PHA) to verify compliance.Follow fair housing laws: As with any rental, you must follow all federal, state, and local fair housing laws.

I recommend you reach out to the proper authorities to pursue this matter.That said, I appreciate you sharing this here so that others might learn from your experience.NO legitimate lender or broker should be asking for significant funds upfront: When the loan gets funded, then they get paid!

Hey @Frank Agyeman-Duah, My co-author in Bigger Pockets upcoming book on Medium-Term Rentals sells a furnishing list, that makes it dummy proof to just order and set up.

Sadly for them, the local authorities found out and decided the sale of the LLC was the same as the sale of the asset so their taxes went up, which was not in their business plan.

The Housing Authority calculates what each individual tenant is able to afford based on their bedroom needs and income. 

.- (more and more municipalities are adding anti-STR regulations- you are competing against so many other people who want to jump on the bandwagon- you have no real control or authority on the properties you manage- you will be held accountable by the real owner and by the renters - but no deep pockets to handle issuesSeems like a niche that is being squeezed out. 

The GF has no legal authority to kick the tenant out of a property he is currently leasing.

The other way you could do it is have a company rep sign the lease and have the "tenant' as an authorized occupant.

Just present them the bill and ask them to pay it so you can authorize the vendor to begin work.

So I have a Housing Authority(Section 8) tenant that is stating they do not have any hot water.
