She boldly claimed, "If you think gas prices are high now, just wait until you're forced to drive an electric vehicle,"I, like many others, doubt she has actually driven an EV let alone charged one.

I compare leverage, insurability, taking write offs, cash flow, monthly  expenses, transportability, speed of decline in a crash, ease of unloading in a crash, forced equity improvement, things like that.

After much legal advice, I understand I can't force a tenant in CA to leave (no-fault evictions are illegal here) unless they are arrested on the property, stop paying rent, or if you have a family member move in.

I'm not saying you can't find deals but buying 100 year old houses with no upside in value or forced appreciation is tough.

If you force the tenant to pay for repairs, they are more likely to hide what needs to be done. 

Meaning you will pay both sides attorneys fees as well as end up with other possible costs going forward in your life and possible court forced asset liquidations and kicked out of your home.

By having that as a minimum, owners are forced to deal with guests as tenants.

Unfortunately, having a new employee during these hours forced me to also train during family time.

Also worth considering who is your labor force, is there a required assembler, is there a certification your GC needs to have this be Warrantied, consider the cost of rigging/hoisting, scaffolding, etc.

You should only consider switching when your current software has a significant flaw or lacks features that force you to spend excessive time on workarounds.
