The property is in a great location,  close to stores, restaurants, fair grounds, freeway access, and less than a mile from hospital.

Quote from @Brendan Jones: For the homes, and or properties that you will use as a primary or a rental property one big thing I look for is infrastructure in the area, extrinsic value (I.e. hospitals in the area, schools, and job market), and the last thing is creature comforts for people (I.e. is a store to get groceries 1 hour away or 2 minutes away).

I can find the broke and impatient all I want at convenience stores and sports bars.Something to be said about paying for a service.

Looking forward to hearing what’s happening in your corner of the property management world!
