Let's pretend both 1 & 2 have industry average returns of 7% (Cash on Cash) and Preferred Return of 14% over 5 years. 

Other though may prefer to set aside the 40-60 hours (whatever it is) and have a book handed to them and a teacher educate them. 

HOA preferred?

They preferred something different. 

Sources not subject to subscriptions are preferred. 

A lot of these questions are the preference of the investor/landlord, but here are my two cents.

Would it make sense even to list that preference will be given to fully vaccinated applicants?

As such, we would strongly prefer an agent who focuses on this area as well instead of the NYC area.We have looked at about a dozen properties on our own already but really could use the added expertise an agent would offer.

Hi Tim, yes the money is in an escrow account  and we can recover it but we would prefer to move forward as we have spent a lot of time alread on this property.

You need to decide which you prefer.
