Pros for Me...
1. Live for free and make some money
2. Low Down Payment/ Low interest rate
3. Learn income property investing
4. Ever since my first property I have screened tenants as if i was going to share a wall with them.
Cons...
1. Can feel more like a Hobby and not a buzness (can get you in bad habits early on)
2. Harder to avoid tenant drama
3.
