I usually suggest to my clients the equivalent of 3 months’ rent held in escrow and double the daily rent rate to be charged in the rent-back agreement starting after agreed upon move-out date if they are not out, with seller maintaining all utilities and repairs on appliances and systems until move out, especially if you’re planning to renovate, anyway.

Thank youHey Steven, I moved to Columbus a few years ago (from Portland, Oregon which was super expensive) to become a full time real estate investor, and ever since, I've completed quite a lot of BRRRRs, flips, and own a successful rental portfolio here in Columbus Ohio.

Despite current unemployment rates maintaining below 5%, the recent rise from 3.8% to 4.2%(recently revised to 4.1%) is significant, especially when considering wage growth adjusted for inflation.Over the last few years, the median household income has dropped by 7.2% when adjusted for inflation (and this isn't even considering volatile food and energy prices), a troubling trend given that inflation has outstripped income growth.

I definitely would want the mail to go to the correct place.If someone wanted to sue you, the fact that you ignored changing your address would be a good argument that you are not maintaining corporate formalities, potentially having the protections of your LLC ignored.Most states have annual filing requirements for the LLCs so that would be a good time to update it.  

Sellers, keep your property well-maintained and inviting—it’s all about making the best impression in a market with options.Parting WordsA shifting market is a door opening to new opportunities.

The sophisticated money is not buying in stagnant markets with poor fundamentals because they can achieve the 1% rule, can complete a BRRRR or because of more favorable landlord tenant laws exist just to highlight what’s rarely part of their acquisition criteria which is a stark contrast to the mindset of most within the BiggerPockets community.Since your focus is specifically on landlord tenant law component I’ll add those who follow the law, properly maintain their property, respond timely to tenant requests, use well drafted and fair leases and don’t unreasonably withhold deposits  find themselves in far less tenant controversies. 

Then you'll be fine.Over time, rents will go up and improve performance.

Welcome to BP @Cory M.Your approach to starting with a single-family or duplex and gradually scaling up is sound, and focusing on cash flow and maintaining reserves is a prudent strategy.

Instead of refinancing immediately, you hold out for rates to drop, which many economists predict will happen as inflation cools and market conditions stabilize in the coming years.Refinance when rates drop, extracting capital while maintaining cash flow at a similar level due to the lower interest rate.Repeat the process by redeploying the refinanced capital into new investment opportunities.This version of the BRRRR method is more of a long-term play, as opposed to the quick 6-12 month cycles many of us were used to.
