It was during our first deal that I realized a term sheet is not set in stone.

I am curious why you sold the two properties that you had and what you learned from those deals?

But, I will be finding/negotiating the deal, listing the property for rent, screening tenants, and handling all maintenance myself.

What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

If the homeowner isn't going to be a professional homeowner/landlord and deal with this him/herself for you, and if everything you do leads to bad results, why keep fighting this fight?

We see it all the time when saving deals at the last minute. 

If I wait to post the house till the renovations are complete I probably wont be able to have someone move in till September 1st which is past when schools gets in session.

If someone has done this how would you structure the deal to make sense for both parties?

The story: I freaking love this deal.

There are also several build-to-rent projects going on with builder financing deals snd some even offering perks like property management (even free for a period) so maintenance costs can be kept lower in the beginning years.
