I don't know about Texas, but you might be able to charge a non-refundable deposit to hold it that then becomes their security deposit when they move in. 

Hi Daniel,Flipping in rural environments with limited comps is a risky move, so personally I wouldn't do it as the risk is too high.

I had a previous tenant that was living in the garage and had to do a Holdback from the seller until he moved all his stuff ad to make sure I won't need to evict him.

At the very least, they'll tell you what you need to do so that you're moving in the right direction. 

They will move out in mid April. 

If it is priced right, then moving it off market should not be an issue.Reach out to your network of industry contacts is huge as well. 

@Nadeem Alamgir - not yet ready to make any moves, still learning our process with this one. 

I usually do this to help cover the carpet cleaning costs once the tenant moves out.
