People don’t sue people that qualify for food stamps.

I thought about having the PM putting language in the lease agreement for the tenant to not let food go down the sink , tenant would be responsible for any kitchen sink clogs going forward, and perhaps require use of a sink strainer but given there was glass found during the 2nd repair, I am not sure how careful or compliant the tenant would be anyway.In addition.. let's say there is a clog in the kitchen sink with no GD, plumber takes care of it,  is there any concern about the impact to piping long term should residual food waste be allowed to accumulate in the pipes? 

Fast food QSR the top brands looking at 5 caps basically so all cash.

The first couple weeks (when I had the most traffic) I was asking $250 pet deposit and $25 extra a month, which I have since changed to $300 per pet deposit and no pet rent to see if that was just not working in this town.

We've averaged $2.1k/m minus expenses (utilities, furniture, fixes, food, etc.) but it covers our mortgage and bills (which was the plan).

At the time of purchase there was no reported laundry income, no garages were being rented out, pets were not allowed, and the rents were not inline with the market.

When I was a kid we were on food stamps and rented a ratty house for 200$ a month .

Just some food for thought.Good luck!

Any other retail advice:  five store fronts and office space on teh second and third floor are currently rented to restaurants, food stores, architects etc.  

Think of all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.
