💰 Financial stability of the buyer: Ensure the buyer has the necessary financial means to make rent payments on time.
🏡 Care of the property: Establish clear rules regarding property maintenance to ensure that the property is well-cared for during the rental period. This may include guidelines on maintaining cleanliness and not making any permanent changes to the property.
⚖️ Legal considerations: Consult with a real estate lawyer or your agent to understand the legal implications and ensure that the rental arrangement is compliant with relevant laws and protects your rights as the seller.
