Your conservative approach to estimating income provides a solid buffer, and the strategic location adds a layer of security.

I can have separate bank accounts, debit cards, security deposit accounts etc. and now with new features like automatic recurring transfers things are even easier and time efficient 

Instead of increasing rent, I would look at having the security deposit increased to protect against wear and tear.

Things to consider: daily internal operations, external branding and operations, lending, in addition to inside out *legal protection and outside in** legal protection, privacy/anonymity/identity protection and security...Prevention measures at different levels, preventing the attack from being initiated vs preventing the attack (lawsuit) being successful vs reducing the damage of a successful attack.... there are many elements and I see people pick one and argue about it without looking at the whole

My biggest hurdle has been securing financing to work on multiple projects simultaneously.  

@Noah SchulzThe previous owners' failure to disclose a back-paying arrangement complicates the situation, potentially leading to tenant disputes or security deposit concerns.

I have several questions - imagine being able to split up property ownership into tiny pieces or having every transaction out there for everyone to see, all secure and tamper-proof.

Combining these strategies often gives investors the best balance of cost, simplicity, and security.

In order to secure the property, we had to offer 10K over asking with the hope it wouldn't appraise.
