Evictions are quick and easy (just a few weeks, faster than most states), judges have always been 100% on my side, sheriffs conduct the move-out quickly with no fuss, there’s no notice required for owners to inspect or enter the property if they want to (I usually still try to give some notice out of courtesy, but it’s nice that I’m not required to), rent control was prohibited entirely across the state in 1981 (recent efforts to overturn that have failed), HOAs don’t have much power here (max fine is $500 for non health and safety violations, they have to give ample notice before any fines, can’t foreclose over late fees or fines, etc.).

landlords would be exempted from the ban if they provide a reason for excluding pets from their property, such as concerns over health or nuisances, so long as they can provide documentation to a rent board if a tenant pushes back."

Focusing in on your intro is that you are interested because it is a busy market - basic human instinct and it is not entirely wrong. 

However, our current situation is a bit unique and has a human aspect we can't overlook.The potential tenants in question are in immediate need of housing, and we have the opportunity to provide them with a safe and comfortable place to live.

Some are facing age/health related mandated retirement, then the decision to take social security early, then accepting the need to find a PT JOB all while commiserating the current balance of their 401(k)'s/IRA's that they left to the 'expertise' of their company's investment officers/advisors.

Upon inspection they're looking for health and safety features such as working fire alarms, GFCI's and such. 

I don't see at this time for health care workers any walkable locations to hospitals and there also isn't the attraction of living in the city like Boston. 

Health care costs will rise.  

Yes, the FDD can be intimidating, as I have reviewed a Home Health Franchise FDD recently. 

@Rodney LoveReal estate investing is a common means of escaping the 9–5 grind, although the methods used to do this vary greatly depending on the investor's background, abilities, risk tolerance, and the health of the market in the desired investment region.
