It is sad to see my investment get this bad, one tenant can cause a lot of stress and problems. 

While I recognize that your leverage will decrease over time, at least currently you won’t have much to protect if you are heavily leveraged.

Fortunately the seller did get it sold, but what stress did I cause that person? 

Most people tend to paint as soon as they move, so I wouldn't stress too much about the choice of color.

One thing to remember...moving is incredibly stressful for kids.

This happens mostly when the value of a house increases (due to let’s say market factors) and the NOI stays the same, decreasing the cap rate (compressing).

Otherwise, be careful on closing out accounts (not sure what kind of debt you have) as that may decrease your “credit history” thus decrease your score further — it’s counter intuitive.

Does anyone know if it's visible on a K-1 document whether or not you are receiving your own capital back (thus decreasing your capital in the deal) or if your capital coming back is classified as a return on your original capital? 

So to you all who are still buying, but with a wary eye on the future market, how far down do you go in stress testing your underwriting?

I am trying to avoid any unintended consequences . . . for example, may adding an ADU in a fairly upscale gated SFH community decrease the desirability of the house for prospective buyers when I am ready to sell?
