I don't accept tenants below 700.When Steve does his criminal back ground checks, some of his tenants have rap sheets pages long.I have yet to encounter a tenant that had more than a ding on marijuana possession.Steve has to do evictions every single year.It's been about a 15 years since I did my last eviction, but that was from inherited tenants when I bought the building.Steve sometimes has some of his apts totally destroyed.For me, the worst that has happened is that a tenant left the apt in a mess and I have to hire someone to clean up.I think I made my point.The education that's been given to these Investors is that everything will work out just fine as if there isn't a lot of bumps in the rode to owning in "C" and "D" class neighborhoods.A lot of them self-manage and a lot have problems with Property Managers.I had one of my friends, Russell, who hired a PM for his Investment in a "D" neighborhood in PA.
