Basically anything that can justify a rent increase.

It lived in my head rent-free (no pun intended).The non-negotiables you listed are basically what I built my whole workflow around.

Basically, if they wanted to set up an air mattress and bring a bag with clothes, toiletries, etc that is fine but not setting up as a permanent residence.The advantage to this is that you never have to worry about having to evict them if they don't leave.

A 3 year lease would mean you need to close on the sale of the home basically on the day the lease ends to retain the primary residence tax exemption.

If you only have one LLC and don’t need entity tracking, you could get a lower subscription and categorize your properties as ‘customers’, then units and tenants would be sub-customers.Simple Start would allow you to invoice your tenants (if desired through QBO) and produce basic reports. 

I prepared some popcorn, just in case.We start with basics and then proceed deeper into the woods.1.

A basic hot water heater replacement in my area would be $1000-1500 depending on a few things.

A lot of people are sidelined not because they don’t see opportunity, but because their credit, cash flow, or confidence is slipping in real time.That leaves a smaller field.And smaller fields are where decisive operators rule the roost.Now is the time to get weird.Change asset classes.Restructure portfolios.Build for where things are going, not where they’ve been.Inventory is sitting right around 3,013 active listings—basically hanging out at that number.

@David V Flores, I'm guessing many people will tell you to get quotes and that may not be a bad idea for something this large but I'll give you another basic method to "estimate":1.

The failure to pay the security deposit after move-in is also a major red flag, as it signals either an inability or unwillingness to satisfy basic contractual obligations.As a best practice, at minimum, first month’s rent and the full security deposit should be collected in certified funds prior to granting possession.
