Assuming your offer got accepted, the owner would need to get a unit vacated by closing (obviously this will need to be communicated).

It's a real pain to enforce but it's worth it.The majority of carriers right now have a loss rule on new business that varies but goes something like this... they will not accept your new policy if you have a loss in the last 3 or 5 years.

If you told a seller, on an accepted deal.

You can test out mid term or short term rentals on one or a few of the units to offset that, or you can accept that you're drastically lowering your living expenses and building equity. 

Meanwhile, they form LLC's in preparation for when claims or conflict will arise almost as if there is an acceptance this will occur. 

Any help is accepted and I am definitely willing to hear your advice! 

Vrbo is not accepting new Subscription Listings and will only allow the renewal of prior Subscription Listings.It sounds like most don't do the subscription listing from what I read here but it's always been a no brainer for me.  

One of my major screening criteria is you must have the deposit and first month's rent plus pet deposit within 48 hours of acceptance. 

If you are paying a fee for every property you make an offer on you are offering way too much...you should be making your offfers low enough (MLS) that only1 in 20-30 will be accepted.

My goal is to not make my first offer so generous that the seller accepts it without making a counter offer.
