Some might have a strong NNN tenant in place with 10+ years left on the lease, and it might be a big corporation that you can take to court if they ghost on paying their rent, while others might be office suites broken up into small offices on 6-36 month leases with shaky tenants like a nutrition supplement MLM that uses the office for 3x a week rah rah meetings on how to recruit more people into the pyramid scheme, that are immune to law suits b/c you can't squeeze juice out of a rock.

Although that lender was not able to provide a loan product for us, due to our connection with the real estate agent; she did want to find a way to help us and connected us with another lender who was able to find a portfolio loan that would suite our needs.

Created en suite bed/bath, extra bedroom/office/playroom, created family/tv room, added a couple of windows in dark rooms, installed new HVAC, ran all new pex lines/valves/shut offs, all new hardwood flooring and carpet, all new and expanded kitchen cabinets, new appliances, converted 1/2 bath into full bath, repurposed 2 unused rooms (1 into a 4th bedroom/office/playroom and one into a family room, installed new interior and exterior lighting, new electric garage door w/remote, and landscaping What was the outcome?

The 2% inflation target was adopted by New Zealand in the 1980s and then other central banks followed suit.

I have a bit of experience self-managing tenants locally (albeit in a secondary suite in my own home), but if it's too much or I can't do it well I will go the property manager route.

Unfortunately, the only way to collect is through a small claims suit, which even when you win, guarantees you nothing. 

(I can just do more tIRA withdrawals to tweek AGI to suit)2.) 5 yr carry forward of excess deductions - (could use to draw down ~$800k tIRA BEFORE RMD or more Roth rolls)Situation: Very desirable but very hard to sell income property (older (1979) small, low value Mobile home,(home = ~1/6th the value of property - Banks don't lend with that ratio) Beautiful acreage, (3) large shops, pond, barns, Very livable cabin (knotty pine!)

The suit cited that the lots are sinking and the homes have severe foundation issues. 

We've found the traditional "live in one half and rent out the other" is a little bit more difficult to accomplish these days but we've had luck pivoting to buying a single family home with an in law suite with separate access.

As @Engelo Rumora stated our business model doesn't suite everyone and we have a specific niche market that we greatly enjoy serving our investors goals and real estate vision.
