Tenants are not being clear about the rabbit being trained and seem evasive, stating that the farm they will get it from says training is quick, and that the rabbit only needs to be shown litter box in cage once and that is the extent of training-- online info indicates that training is a process not a one time thing.

@Spencer Herrick like most of the folks said here, it's about your team and being sure you have a solid due diligence process in place...no need to see a property in person if the property meets all the criteria on your due diligence checklist...the first 35 checklist items are crossed off in the first 3-days of due diligence...One thing you have to remember is almost every existing and new structure in the country was built by a professional developer that met strict requirements set by building codes...properties can have issues, but almost anything can be fixed...overall SFR and MF homes are incredibly durable.
