If he’s not the tea and crumpets Type then Maybe a few lotto tickets a bottle of mad dog and a pack of Newport’s would entice him to pay his rent also

It's a very rural community, mostly older homes, so kind of a mixed bag.

The other 20% is a grab bag of people that don't need to use ALL rental income to qualify (so the one unit appearing on tax returns does the trick), people that move back in with mom who doesn't charge rent, wonky things like that. 

As markets rise and heats up, flipping margins tightens and more risk holding the bag when the market heads down.In general, finding the deal is paramount to market conditions. 

Bags are all the fashion.Ok 2-5 are a joke (ish, maybe some validity to them). 

I violate my golf game every time I take a club out of the bag but I'm not sure how your ability to somehow grab some undefined violation has any impact on a data point that tells you to buy or not buy.

Lower yield assets might not be your cup of tea, but the yield of the asset has nothing to do with the strategy. 

But heck you are good looking.. they will probably invite you in for tea!

And assuming you're an LLC or such, you can walk away leaving me holding the bag if it really gets bad.

Close to intown I see crazy prices that are not sustainable, lot's of old houses falling apart with lipstick on them and over valued, high property taxes, aging county and city water and sewer systems (some 100 years old), etc.It's just not my cup of tea but other people love it.
