Perhaps bake some cookies when you show the place for that home sweet home feeling.thanks, Matt

@Walter Ichikawa-Doyle - That's a sweet one...

Try short and sweet first. 

Depending on the demographics of your rental this may be difficult to implement (especially on short notice - I now require it for new tenants).We're both in that sweet spot where a part/full time employee is overkill, but the cost of a PM seems excessive when most things can be done remotely these days.  

@Clint Kreider Sweet sounds good @Mike Grayford fair enough i do appreciate the input :)  Ill test out a some of the FIBI meetings first.

My sweet spot is in the under 150k range for flips.

Self-help eviction can get you into hot water with the court and possible hefty fines.Your mistake was waiting to file eviction right away and listening to the sweet talk of a tenant.

What is the sweet spot for a rental?  

For properties that are in the sweet spot for rentals, seller financing has many of the pitfalls of tenants (late payment, non-payment) but none of the tax benefits.

Louis.It’s actually a pretty sweet deal: close military family who take pride in executing the mission while looking out for each other; relatively close to several major cities (St Louis, Chicago, Nashville, Memphis), but far enough away to avoid the hustle and bustle; easy access to many outdoor activities; growing tech industry, close to five excellent transportation routes (the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers, and I-70, I-64, I-55); and an exciting baseball team (I’ve drank the Kool-aide and am now a solid Cardinals fan).Talk about Location!
