Eventually when they get their health back enough to go back to work, I am hoping they will want to rent to own... or we can get another family in who needs the environmentally safe place.I need guidance in how to fund the purchase of a property a single mom and her son can live in while they heal.

I know laws vary by location.About 4 months ago, we had a bad rainstorm and water seeped into the bathroom through foundation due to poor drainage near the outside wall.

People can hurt you either by taking your money or by bringing a really poor attitude.  

It's not the business it's the person who does not know how to be professional and conducts poor business practices.

If you take into account all the funds that may consolidated or closed down due to poor performance the index 500 beats out 85% of all managed funds.I believe that 2018 - 2036 will look similar to the performance 1982 - 2000.

Did I make a poor choice?

@Brian Mathews   by starting out handling your own rentals you will gain the skills needed to know when your PM is not doing a good job.. instead of learning they are not doing a good job by very poor financial performance..

I humbly ask the BP community's opinion/experience, is this house a deterrent to families even after a clean bill of health.

It is performing poorly because the owner operators are under capitalized, don't know the business, and are burned out.

For example:My foot hurts > Stubbed my toe > Poorly positioned barcalounger > I put the chair there > The outlet for my TV is too close to the wall, putting my chair in an awkward position > My house is old and wasn't built with widescreen TV's in mind > Widescreen TVs weren't invented earlier > The Devil.See?
