A lot of MTR tenants will prefer to be close to where they’re working so they can just work and go home to sleep.

Of course capex does come into play, but I have a lot of factors on my side including most major components of the property have been replaced already, including roof replaced 2 years ago, water heater replaced 3 years ago, full house was just repiped, septic system is 5 years old, HVAC system replaced in last 7 years, i do not cover appliances with warranty in my rentals, and the tenant I placed in the property is a single dude who works 60 hours a week and just needs a place to sleep.

@Brian Plajer  - I find a lot of value (translation: ability to sleep at night) in the Sumrok network, because I get to meet, talk, and get to know the folks I invest with. 

My advice would be not to be pound foolish and penny wise, spend the money now and sleep safer. 

I sleep well with DST's.....So farMike

In the Orlando, FL area, people are desperate for bookings and are trying to get guests in their house that sleeps 10 for $99 a night?

He also claims when he stayed over in his girlfriend's house (now wife) he would sleep in the guest room and always have nightmares.

Sleeping around?

I’m hoping to buy a home around 500K with 5 bedrooms and renting every room while sleeping in a trailer.

Consider how it will be used and if the floor can function as storage, rec room, family room, extra sleeping space, etc.From what you've shared, my concern would be the "hills" that may cause a tripping issue.
