My very nice 4 bdr refurbished SFR has been vacant for over 2 months.

And I got burned almost every time by being the nice guy.

While they are very nice and I believe good people, I have had a few deals fall through after months of hard work on them because they do not fight for the deal in my opinion. 

Then decorate the place up, nice lighting, signs, etc.Then you can move the needle. 

Nice weather.

And make sure the floors have a nice contrast such as the middle ground flooring you touched on.

I was trying to be nice and told him I need to think about it. 

Occupying 8,000 square feet indoors and 2,000 square feet on a third-floor patio, this will be the largest In-N-Out in the world.

I don’t have any affiliation with them, just thought I’d share as I think it is pretty much as cheap as you can find for paid softwares with good functionality.Payments take several days to process, but tenants can automate them which is nice.

Rents will go up and your biggest mistake was to buy a nice house in a desirable neighborhood.The real threat is buying in the hood, leveraged up to the gills, maybe even with hard money, tenants are bleeding you dry, while you are writing checks to attorneys and contractors.Milwaukee is getting a lot of attention lately: cash flow is still better than most places and appreciation is stable at 5-8%.
