Leverage is probably the main reason people go broke in this business.

I’m a newbie landlord in Cal and have already served the 3 day notice twice with my very first tenant, I’m still in the early stage of this painful eviction process.Tenant claimed heater broke down the second day after I served the 3 day last month.

Being a lifelong city girl, I don't think I would enjoy living in central MA but I could definitely look into it as a place to purchase property that I'm not living in.

I was broke as a joke at the beginning.

The damage is that you broke your lease early.

All,  One of my tenants broke her hand while walking on the icy driveway. 

A couple that I personally liked were The 10x Rule, Rise and Grind and The Power of Broke.

We had a similar issue where the tenant had friends over, an altercation broke out and the friend was shot and killed.

If not, you didn't have it anyway.One girl's two centsBest of luckStephanie

I heard from a person in San Antonio that had 25 rent homes and almost went broke because of turnover expenses and then he decided to loan to good people was the best way to go and now he is a millionaire by doing lease options with a higher non-refundable down payment, the spread between the rental amount and the debt amount, and the option that is not usually taken but if the do the option you can make money on their purchase.
