These options allow them to control expenses better, attract similar tenants, and often achieve higher rents with lower costs.I believe there is a promising market for purpose-built attached single-family homes for rent in Worcester.

Thanks Jorge build new don't buy new and don't buy existing. find your own land, entitle it, control the full process, get architects, zoning attorneys, roll your sleeves up it isn't easy but it's big money. 

Condos are often terrible rental properties because the HOA controls a large portion of the costs.If you want to get into rentals, take the proceeds and roll it into something else.

You are in control you put the rent money in and that money generates  9% compound interest.

I prefer to have control and be able to look at everything myself if needed.Checking accounts are generally free, so why not?

There is simply too much we cannot control after we sell a property for us to provide any prediction of a result.

As a landlord who likes to have control - this doesn't work for me personally.  

LL Controls the end of lease period.  

@Nicholas J MineoAs far as the ADU, I was considering that myself but if I do that my SFH is now considered a 2 unit and subject to rent control - San Francisco, Berkeley and Oakland are the worst with regulations. 

If it's spotted by an inspector during an inspection or the CL100 (pest inspection), it will be noted in the report.
