Do you expect a over-supply of rental which will bring down the rental price3.

I have had no flack from anyone over it.How about running the lines through your locked maintenance closet and installing the flow meters there so you can keep them secure?

That has been finished and gives me a stronger sense of security than I had previously.

I've never believed in the percentage they stun your income since there are too many variables as to what your actual expenses are, your job security, your age, your safety net, your reserves, etc. etc. etc.

The previous owner may have paid a security deposit - ask for that.

Your mortgage will remain constant but taxes and insurance increase and labor rates, materials and supplies will probably double.

The one question i get is "How can you assure me that you are not going to sell the beneficiary interest to othe investors" What can i do so these investors wont feel more secured when buying my deals.

Another idea I had was to keep a credit card on file and charge it on their move out for any outstanding balances if the security deposit doesn't cover it.

So for every phone call I get (when there's a vacancy), 7 aren't interesetd when they find out where it is, 2 are being evicted from somewhere else, and the final one has to jump through several hoops to get the first month's and security deposit together.

I am thinking that this scenario would be a good way to give lenders security for a line of credit without completely sapping the ROE if one wishes to take a passive role in the underlying asset instead of managing the project.
