The landlord (which is a corporate entity with thousands of doors in several states) gets a tenant it likes for another 13 months.

I see the upside to buy and hold investing (specifically during a downturn where flipping isn't as profitable) but making a few hundred a month per door doesn't excite me on a small scale.

@Evan Bellingar  real estate tends to go in 10 year cycles 5 is a little tight.but no one save a few ( watch movie big short) really saw the 08 melt down coming or thought it would be such a global disaster as it was....Were ORegon got hurt the most was in Construction... in from 1992 to 2007 there were an average of 12,000 doors being built in the metro area. that slowed in 08 and by 09 there was a grand total of 700 permits pulled... construction financing had froze .. and a great many in the trades went bankrupt lost their homes and are just now pulling out..

Each time the HVAC runs is it drawing humid air in through leaky windows and doors?

I live in the issaquah Highlands and realtors regularly leave notes on my door asking if I am thinking about selling.  

A cash flow, on the high end of your estimate, of $100/mo per door seems pretty risky for that much of an investment.

There is also no washer/dryer hookup, but there is a laundromat literally 200 feet from the front door. 

I know that's only $45/month/door but, again, I believe rents could be raised. 

Examples of similararchitectural details include, but are not limited to, windows, doors, roof style, cornice detailing, vents, and dormers.

Hi BP members I wanted your insight regarding my tenants request to install security doors in one of my SF rental.
