In markets like Chicago or Baltimore, where there is not much new construction, we will see rents rise faster than inflation. 2) 2026 will see new multifamily deliveries slow to closer to historical lows, though not quite as low as what we saw in the great recession. 

I don't know how that business could survive long-term with such low rates.If those numbers are accurate and you can net $38,000 a year, then it's worth holding onto.

It's a low barrier to entry and a good option for you, I would highly and I mean highly recommend you focus on location.

Sure you could do a money market or put it in an ETF or something, but this is one of the options where the balance "can't" go down or is extremely low risk while making a decent yield.

In my state i have no such requirement on security deposits but i question the feasibility of doing this as well as how will anyone know as long as you have the means to pay the tenant their deposit when they move out. most banks charge for low balance accounts.  

However, my patience is running low.

Highs in the 15s and lows will be 0 this week. 

.- Tenant submitted a work order for low water pressure in 2 bathrooms- Tenant submitted a work order because the garage door doesn't close all the way and left a 2-3 inch gap at the bottom- Owner initially refused to address either work order- Owner demanding the tenants place furniture pads on each piece of furniture- Owner calling multiple times to speak through the work orders, asking when they've been scheduled, calling a couple days later requesting the invoices- Owner calling because they want to access their storage in the basement so they can remove several pieces of furniture being stored- Owner now emailing requesting multiple property inspections throughout the lease cycle- Owner questioning my experience and relative PM knowledge because I'm not following up with her in a timely manner (the following day after the work order)Keep in mind, this is 2 weeks after the tenants had moved in and the tenants are very happy in the home.This is something we see on a regular basis.

Hi @Dave Tab yes for the low money down loans as far as I know you need to be able to show you are occupying the property.   

Second, the insurance is $1.5k which seems to be low as well.
