I know when my son was in a boarding house mail was horrible. 

This product is one of the composites, probably this: https://www.homedepot.com/p/LP...It can be a decent product if installed absolutely correctly. but that work looks horrible.

I don't do partnerships (they're the only ships that always sink) so I'm biased but this is a horrible idea.  

The headache is what makes me worry this is a horrible idea!

This is the kind of problem I would categorize as "a pimple on a fleas a@@" kind of problem. 

This is horrible.

Things will either be going well (which you will barely notice), or HORRIBLE (which you will be unable to forget).

I would counter argue that it's pessimist and doubters who give the industry a horrible name.

We started with  our first duplex gut job for $15K, 5 -years ago  (now appraised for $125K) , no one wanted to touch it.. but honestly,  once you survive a horrible scenario, everything else seems kind of easy-- you know the saying "when it rains, it pours"---- I have  updated version for landlords specifically...

Unless this a MASSIVE downsize (like your rental and your new home in 2 years will both be 1/2 the value of your current property this is probably a horrible idea.)If your property in 2 years will be as expensive as your current property this will be a lose lose proposition.
