Obviously a fully cash flowing house hack would be ideal, but in FL I think that's going to be tough to find, especially with 3.5% down.

Some of these are coffee charged to the business card, quick supply runs, and auto-renewing subscriptions.

I now take it as a sign that the software and service quality themselves won't motivate me to renew on a monthly basis, so they must trap customers with annual payments and auto-renewing contracts to keep business.

So that "pro" tends to be a fallacy.Even if your lease states that it auto renewws to M2M, you can still give them an annual renewal before that renewal window is up, and your annual renewal will take precedent.Yes - if you increase rent, give them notice and sign a renewal/amendment to the original lease.

I’m evaluating a former car wash property in Metro Detroit:Just under 1 acre lot~4,000 sq ft building with multiple bays (9 ft clearance overhead doors)Zoned C4 “Multi Use Commercial”My concept is to convert it into multi-tenant flex space for auto-related businesses (detailing, tinting, wraps, light mods, etc.).I’d love to hear from anyone who has repurposed a car wash (or other single-use building) into something else.

At a very minimum the owners have to update their loan payment information (we set up new auto payment and update our records on the loan owner).  

The interesting part is that I have the insurance business on auto pilot with my team, managers, etc. so I honestly don't spend more than maybe an hour per week on that business.

If you cater to tenants, they will take advantage of you.Set boundaries, include payment options in your lease, include auto-renewal clause in your lease with a 5% rent increase.Get creative!

That can make or break an approval in underwriting.A Heloc is also unstable here even if you have (1) late payment on anything credit card, auto loan, student loan, mortgage even by error or mistake.

Thinking of selling the rest of my stocks and using the money to pay off our $25k auto loan (6%, $600/month).
