If so, any suggestions of what to put in the letter?

If I were completely gutting the kitchen, then I would wait until the work was mostly done so renters could get an idea of what they would be paying for.

I am currently house hacking my townhome in Silver Spring, MD and have been doing so for just short of 3 years.

Thanks so much and hope to see you at one of the meeting ups! 

If so, can you prove the seller knew about it but didn't disclose? 

Insufficient reserves result in vendor bills piling up, value-add strategies running behind schedule, and returns being reduced, so it's important to have a clear picture about how well capitalized or undercapitalized a deal is so that you can truly assess the risk.

I do have a construction team in place so I don't have to it all myself again but I'd like to do a significant about of work myself to save $$$.I'm looking for any advice on my situation and looking to connect with other investors. 

Your tenant is only allowed to withhold rent when specific requirements are met, and they must do so in a very precise manner.

So, the residential property would need to be traditionally rented (whole unit/house) for at least a year before rent-by-the-room income would count towards gross income? 

Also, I ordered a sewer scope and they could not get the scope all the way through to the main sewer line because of some blockage so i have no idea if the main sewer line looks ok.
