What are you protecting your property from?

Federal Laws Prohibit Discrimination of 7 Protected Classes, Massachusetts has added 8 more:-02.Always know more of the Rules/Laws/Regulations than ANY Tenant.

The reality is the opposite - if it's not in writing then the PMC doesn't have to provide the service or can charge extra for it.We have a 12 page management contract that we've added our real experiences to over the years, with the intent of protecting both us AND the landlord.

I’m wondering how I can protect myself if they somehow rack up the bills/ abuse the policy. 

Quote from @JD Martin: If you have found people willing to lend you - someone with I assume no experience doing this, since you're here asking the question - 100% of the costs of such an endeavor for half the profits, you have found a gold mine and should look no further.

Not sure I would invest in places without such protections as I see this on BP in a lot of places (i.e.

Champagne Bronze fixtures (NOT brushed gold).

They wouldn't be coming to you.So you can get a gold standard investment advisor and give up .5 to 2% of your return, or you can send the money to one or more huge index funds like Vanguard 500 index fund and sleep well at night.But if you think you have something of value other than the generic value of money, you will be sorely disappointed.

This protects your investment and gives you leverage if there are issues.Other Tips:Make sure the lease explicitly defines the move-out date.Conduct a thorough walkthrough with documentation before and after the lease period to avoid disputes.Handling a seller-to-tenant situation can be tricky, but with the right precautions, it can work smoothly.
