I hope you still plan to screen her properly, credit check, and check with her previous landlords, (not the last one).

@David Ross Yes, they said it will clear title with the easement, but last step was to confirm if the lender will approve of it and they told us it wouldn’t work.

To update for anyone who runs into this post, I got the GE washer/dryer combo installed last October.

Leases of those properties increased 10.6 percent on the year, with 575 units leased compared to 520 last January.

Hi All,I'm relatively new to the real estate scene and have spent the last year immersing myself in podcasts and books on real estate investing.

I agree with @Michael Baum and @Sarah KensingerWhat you will gain on name recognition from the big company name will be lost by people fearing that a big name company is unable to care for their property as a smaller company can.The loss of marketing and accounting systems can be replaced by hiring a company like Vintory and a Bookkeeper through a CPA.

Inching closer to the 7% mark, the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage has climbed to 6.90%, up from 6.77% last week and notably higher than the 6.50% recorded a year ago, according to Freddie Mac data.After a period of smaller rate movements offering some relief to homebuyers, recent signals from the Federal Reserve hinting at delayed rate cuts have sparked an upward trend.Sam Khater, Chief Economist at Freddie Mac, emphasizes that strong economic and inflation data are driving this shift.
