The initial $100k negative would consume many months/years of cash flow.  

Also, multiple documented site visits with the city and utilities like @Rick Garrido said is time consuming but worth it for your evaluation.

I see recommendations to open accounts and give your tenants your banking information, or use consumer point-to-point apps like Venmo, in these forums. 

In addition, in accordance with the regulations made under the Consumer Credit Act, if your loan term is greater than 12 months you will pay an additional 30 days interest.

If not, in many instances it does not end well: while hope everything goes good forever - always good to have a what if plan just in case

Clicking into profiles is too time consuming, so this can help posters quickly filter what responses are most helpful.

Your basis is forever, when your basis is right even a bad market makes you money.

You have a governmental authority using its power to hinder and regulate private transactions creating some kind of “litmus” test based on god knows whatYou have a seller remaining in a home he sold indefinitely.You have a lender that has twice filed for foreclosure You have a profit sharing arrangement upon resale with the seller/tenantYou’re performing repairs/maintenance on a house while occupied by the seller/tenantAny or all these are lawsuit magnets.If you buy a property, and the seller is a consumer, not an investor, you should NEVER do a profit participation.  

Also, when is cashflow to be enjoyed as profit taking when property keeps consuming cashflow.
