Insurance liability, I personally know 2 families that lost their children in home pools.

It’s temporarily lost its shine because of the slow down in transactions.

So you have little control of performance, no mercy from your tenant pool, and a lot of risk in neighborhood.

Calculate how much more in interest, lost profits, etc it will cost you to have this “blip” on your credit report.  

First, what does your lease say about pest/rodent control? 

In the last few years, they've made illegal:-Rent controls of any kind-Limiting of fees or screening charges-The ability of HOAs to regulate STRs or LTRs in their neighborhoodThat's just the start.

After that's under control, focus on increasing income through additional work at your current job, taking on a side hustle, or finding ways to increase income on your existing rental.At the same time, educate yourself.

It's also easier to figure out all of the pro's and con's a head of time to avoid lost time and money.  

You’ll develop resilience, leadership, negotiation skills, vision, emotional control, and more.

On 60k of lost rent they collected exactly zero.
