But I would remain open to long-term rental as an option as this seems like a more stable option in terms of income, again this may be my inexperience talking.However, I have always  been somewhat risk averse and investing in real estate is always a big venture, in my opinion/experience, in terms of capital.

Hey Jeff, This is a great question and one we get all the time as we specialize in working with real estate folks, but the size of the portfolio can vary widely. 

She’s currently not paying rent, and while she has some health issues and no stable income, she’s been communicative and open to general talks, with a possible option to vacate through a cash-for-keys arrangement, though this might take around six weeks and some hard work.I plan to rehab the property and eventually rent it out, potentially to a Section 8 tenant.

An option to better understand and see the model without having to spend all the time is turnkey interesting.

Does Baseline give you the option to track expenses without attaching it to a particular property?

Looks like you have some good options in front of you @Martin Phinney.

Just an option, we love it.

I'm an investor and mortgage broker and have options for loans that go as low as $75,000 and down payments as low as 15%, which makes it easier to stay above $75,000.

I did a lot of research on options.

If you’re looking for ways to make the numbers work, sometimes that means evaluating different markets, financing options, or property management strategies that help mitigate risks like vacancies and maintenance surprises.You’re not alone in feeling like 2025 could go in multiple directions, but one thing remains true—real estate continues to be one of the strongest vehicles for long-term wealth when approached the right way.
