Nick, 

Welcome to BP, you are right this is a great community and you can learn a lot from some of the professionals here. If you want to buy and hold as a strategy you may want to check out the note business. I buy non-performing notes, modify them and sell them to Investors with a 10%-15% cash on cash ROI. I don't need to deal with the tenants and all the problems of being a Landlord. If interested give me a call or check out my web site.

To your success

Instead of buying a rental and dealing with toilets, trash, tenants not paying, consider buying the note and becoming the Lender!
