I recently secured my first off-market property under contract.

All three generate leads from insurance claim residents and traveling professionals (medical and the trades).One of the advantages of FF has been that it's forced us to have systems in place to create leases, accept security deposits without co-mingling and provide "live" customer service. 

I wanted to have a spot to rent out and cover the monthly mortgage payments while securing a small spot to have for myself in the next 30 years for when I no longer reside in Charlotte but want to visit friends, or downsize.

The information is typically - lease start and end date, how much rent is, what the security deposit is, and how much in advanced rent there is.

So this is common thought and why it is a real challenge to get debt secured by the ADU value add at higher than 50% of the addition cost. 

Knowledge of techniques and terminology is great - but if you don't take action, all is lost.

I do a lot of direct bookings that take security deposits, but with Airbnb, they are always tough.

Like you, I was eager to start investing in real estate but decided to hold off until I had more visa security.

Due to recent security frauds and banks not covering losses adequately, apps like Zelle may not currently be the best option.

First, request the current rent roll, which details each unit’s rental income, lease terms, and any security deposits.
