I messaged cozy support, and they replied below which seems very bad to landlords.Reply from customer service: unfortunately, when it comes to payments being disputed, Cozy does not have the ability to prevent it from happening.

Otherwise, you have an escape to prevent being the next owner of an empty lot.As an avid student of the certificates in Indiana, NEVER buy a property you can't physically visit.

The reason why all of this documentation is required, in a nutshell, is to prevent mortgage fraud and also to prove to the lender that you are in fact a qualified buyer who is able to repay their significant investment into your real estate business.

They don't take pictures of the stains on the ceiling from the leaking roof. 

This prevents them from collecting rent and holding it hostage.You should also ensure you get everything in writing regarding the termination.

I find government will not guide you, they do everything possible to obstruct you, so you need to dig in to what the rules are, you may find out they cant prevent you from making it a duplex, and dont need a zoning change.

I will say that most property management companies are going to require you to sign a non-compete agreement that may prevent you from practicing management for 1-2 years after you leave the company (within a certain geographic area) and especially while you are working there, so it may be difficult to start your company while working for another company.
