If you don't have flood insurance you could lose the structure and no city/county/state does free clean up. 

There are some creative financing solutions out there once you find a property, but you should probably start thinking through a potential cosigner/partner if you will need one. 

He does land cleaning and land development for a living so he would do all the development through his company.

I never expect them to clean good enough to not have to do any cleaning for the next tenant. 

He did not respond.We then canceled the booking and were refunded the cleaning fee.I kept checking if the 2 days we booked were still available for booking. 

Don't get involved in this property unless it's a clean sale.

That said, if anyone has any creative solutions to work around, please let us know!! 

There has been new regulation voted on in the earlier part of 2021 that will phase out new permitting for owners of these RM zoned properties throughout Nashville starting on Jan. 1, 2022.If you purchase a property in this zoning, close, and apply for your permit prior to Jan. 1, 2022 then you will be grandfathered in on this zoning and your STR permit as long as you keep your permit active with a yearly renewal fee (currently $320 with a credit card).However, if you purchase a property in Nashville that is currently an STR at a current income-based appraisal approach in these zonings it is important to know that you will more than likely not be able to resell this property to anyone else under this appraisal approach and could greatly affect your long term plans of these types of properties.I have had several other realtors, investors, developers speak with me recently with the solution that they could simply put the property into an LLC and then sell the whole LLC in order to skirt around this new regulation.

Did minor clean up only and sold before the Open House How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?
