The problem is timing, headaches and overall money : time ratio     Is it worth the headaches, time and constant tearing at your moral compass?

You are going to pay for that mistake.Second your tenants problems are not your problem, no room for compassion in business.

I do think there always most be compassion for those with less and why we have section 8 etc. maybe I am not seeing it right but just my 2 cents

The problem for the PR self-representing the estate is they want to avoid paying attorney's fee's.This is what I noticed when new files are published in Sacramento, Placer and San Francisco counties.If your going to send your marketing letter's make sure you show compassion and sympathy.This is one reason why I decided to get my real estate license.

I work in Neds market I work in Orlando I work in INdy  I work in KC  in Cleveland in PHILLy etc etc  and the deals for my guys come from all points of the compass  wholesalers licensed or not agents who have a pipeline to distressed assets ( those are usually the best but the average investor has a hard time cracking that code you need big money and volume to get into that pipeline.)

You make the rules, you inforce the rules, if you can not do that with zero compassion you are in the wrong business.Tenants in lower class neighbourhoods hone their skills to take advantage of every possible system and landlords are just another system in their sights.If you get good tenants obviously treat them cordially but never ever let down your guard, that is what they are waiting for you to do.

Show as much compassion as possible and keep tempers as low as possible, anger never helps.

I read everything from algorithms, creative thinking, willpower and self compassion, entrepreneurship etc etc.The point in time when I decided to enter real estate investing was when I was listening to a BiggerPockets podcast with Karen.

I believe in compassion and humanity.
