If/when I pestered them enough, they'd get caught up, only to fall behind again.Because I was aggravated at having to write them letters constantly (including certified at $5+), I consulted the attorney I used to draw up the contract and do the closing.

In the meantime, YOU get the aggravation, the 6 PM Friday calls, etc. etc.

Our mortgage lady is aggravating me to no end.

Don't focus on the rent money...the damages and aggravation will cost you far more in the long run if you don't take charge of YOUR property.

But, the amount of time, aggravation, and waiting on lender return phone calls was more than I was willing to deal with at that time.But... in today’s world...

Since you're a new landlord, you may come to find that a tenant paying one or two days late is one of the least aggravating things they can do!

I made a very conscience decision to enter into RE and have repeatedly chosen to stay in RE despite having received some rather lucrative offers in other industries.Since I left my last corporate job, I've obtained 2 professional licenses, one of which required a heck of a lot of aggravation to lay hands on.

At some point, the aggravation and anxiety just isn't worth it to me anymore.

Wondering your thoughts if putting up a for rent sign in a tougher area sets you up for vandalism and more aggravation?

I know for a fact that my house has not dropped 30% and my local market is doing alright, but trying to fight the bank...well, I'm not feeling like taking on the aggravation right now.
