I live in the UK and manage my property from here.

If the rents are not covering the costs, then you are gambling on appreciation. 

Which is weird considering he was not really halfway done.Anyways good timesThey are Characters...it’s a gamble ...their pride of ownership....Have fun!!!!

I don't know if Venmo would get involved, but technically if a tenant were to go to them and say "the landlord told me to pay this way", Venmo would technically be allowed to reverse the payments since it is not to be used for goods and services (unless you are set up with hem as a business and have the payment button option).Credit cards are also a big gamble. 

Does anyone gamble with flooded homes.

I understand that it is a gamble and that if I use all  the right tools and do my homework, I will minimize my risk and will be successful.

But most of all, I feel like it's a huge gamble. 

However, we are long distance investors currently living in the UK.

I think I could have paid $350 for the entire year, so its a gamble.

Will you take a gamble and pick shrimp and try it?
