I'll be the easiest investment you've ever made!!!

Sell it and take your half and buy a different rental?

I have been a global business developer in the world of construction equipment for the first half of my life's career and have watched Kubota take over the global excavator market country by country since the 90s against a field of 30+ competing brands by offering a product that costs 5% less, has a slightly better initial quality and about similar performance.

If your nest egg is 60k, I would not get started yet if you are willing to burn half of it and can only make 1k/month between you to add to it.

It only cost me $560 too for half the year which is what my other multi units cost me in another town.

I had tenants once who got paid twice a month and found it easier to pay half on the 1st and half on the 15th, so that is what we did and after that they were never late. 

I sit on the Board of Advisors for FTF, and have invested in more than a half-dozen deals (average investment of $25K) in the past 18 months. 

They are the easiest to locate in the easiest to sell, and they have the largest market of possible buyers. 

In other word's being told half there business is now gone and handed to JP.

It's more commonly a flat fee or maybe half a month's rent.
