If you want to switch from joint tenancy to tenancy in common, a real estate attorney can help create a new deed with the desired ownership percentages.

@Nathan Gesner depends on the SOW required for RentReady.Your timeline works for Class A properties and maybe 70% of Class B properties.We do many $5k+ turns of Class C properties that aren't getting done in a week - usually takes longer than that for owner to approve the SOW and then send the funds!

Their perspectives have been invaluable in highlighting the nuanced balance between the challenges and rewards this venture entails.Self-managing, especially given the property's distance, presents unique challenges, primarily revolving around the commitment required for regular maintenance and promptly addressing tenant needs. a property management firm I'm considering offers a fee of 9.9% or an intriguing maintenance-only service at $95 per month.

They require 20% down then will finance up to 80% of the ARV.

The max LTV is not quite as high as FHA, but there is no sustainability requirement for triplexes and quads (FHA triplex and quad must meet sustainability requirements).  

I want to make sure I'm acting in accordance with the local government's legislation, but I'm having trouble making sense of all of the information I'm finding on https://www.roanokeva.gov/.How do investors usually navigate legislation requirements when starting renting in a new city?

After that, I specifically wrote into my lease that if your neighbor can hear you and asks you to be quiet, you are required to comply!

Your either going to beat your head on the wall because of the debt and stress about it making money or stress that you paid all or a substantial amount of your cash when you go all in. i understand this will be unpopular for a lot of BP viewpoints but it worked for us, we own 2 STR that we owe nothing on now and purchased both for 670k and have a real value of $1.2-1.3mm. it requires you to put a lot of your cash back to your reserves but you have it all to do it with.Personally we believe in ourselves and our ability to pick high producing properties(that is the very first and foremost consideration) then we went all in and never looked back, 2 years later bought our second STR with mostly cash. 

You need to clearly explain when the lease ends and ample notice needs to be provided if an extension is required. 

The program can provide a win-win solution for both landlords and tenants in need of affordable housing.If you have any other questions about my experience with Section 8 or the program requirements, feel free to ask!
