Some choose to burn the ships and go on an adventure. 

If you feel these tenants were burned by the early hiccups, let them move out and start fresh with someone else that won't experience the hiccups and is willing to pay market rate.

The consequences of not fixing it are the house burning down.

Ideally I would be the silent investor on projects I care deeply about -- there are a dozen excellent ones near me - but I was burned on the last 2 due to me not having the time, energy or experience to run the team.

So it also keeps agents, lenders,  title, box stores, etc with less $ to burn.  

That way, when/if you burn out on it, you'll be able to afford it if you planned it out from the beginning.Seems like the numbers might be tight for that as it sits.

I still feel burned but lesson learned.I had a similar gut feeling that I should have listened to, but I wanted a tenant in ASAP to cover the next months mortgage.  

The question is it worth the risk for a possibly better rate with the chance of getting burned?
