Managing tenants yourself is no small task, but I’d say it’s often a blessing in disguise.

I have purchased the following books:ABCs of Buying Rental Property The ABCs of Property Management The ABCs of Real Estate Investing The Advanced Guide to Real Estate InvestingThe Book on Investing in Real Estate with No (and Low) Money DownWhat order do you recommend reading them in?

And the elected officials and tenants wonder why rent keeps going up so much.I have been having to put in a lot of fire systems in properties we manage.

Reliable property management is everything, especially as out-of-state investors.

Needs an owner-operator to manage. 

Some hotels actually have a condo like structure, where people can own the units, but perhaps are limited on their personal use to only a certain amount of the year - the rest of the year it is in the rental pool managed by the hotel.If numerous room owners stopped paying their bills, you could get tax liens on numerous separately owned units.Hotels are a tough business, an issue I also see come up with them often is that they require refreshes, expensive and relatively often - at least once every 10 years, if not more often. 

I’d love to connect with experienced investors, agents, and property managers to deepen my understanding of the strategies and markets.
