Winter In the Mid West and rentals

[Edgar Rodriguez]

Hello I purchased my 1st duplex in September and everything is going great. Another real good opportunity came up to purchase another duplex, but since I am going to be financing I was concerned about renting it out. I was concerned because I was wondering, do tenants really move in the winter months or do they wait till it warms up. I mean it snows in The mid west so I would think its a PIA to move. Im from sunny SO CAL so we really dont have winter. Lol any input would really help. Duplex is in Council Bluffs Iowa.

In Tenant Utopia, where everyone is logical and makes good life choices, people only move In May, June, and July, and everyone pays last month's rent.

In Council Bluffs, Iowa, however, you may have to evict 2 tenants in November in an apartment building you recently bought because they were inviting homeless people to sleep in the warm  laundry room and stealing other tenants' clothing...
