Allot of investors combat this situation by getting low income tax credits, but they are very difficult to get.My experience is that when a lease expires they typically renew because the government is paying for most of their rent.

How do you combat that?

I don't think you'd want to get known as a landlord who's combative.

Most people at 19 don't have those.You can combat that by doing one simple thing: Delivering value to others.When I got started, I had the opposite problem - I was much older than the average person starting out.

As a retired police Commander (30 yrs), I went to Afghanistan embedded with Infantry Brigade Combat Teams (2011 with 45th IBCT, and 2013-2014 with 2nd BCT/101st Airborne) as a consultant on a Dept of Defense contract.

Therapy animals provide people with therapeutic contact, usually in a clinical setting, to improve their physical, social, emotional, and/or cognitive functioning.I would also add one more point that is often misunderstood; with the millions of men & women who experienced combat in the US Military, hundreds of thousands return home with PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder).

I trained with some of the most elite combat shooters in the world. 

For entities that exist to preserve the value and lifestyle of a community, HOA's don't seem to give a damn that investors are rescuing an often neglected home with a non-performing account, and turning them into a quality place to live with a HOA fee paying homeowner.Are others around the country seeing these outrageous fees, and is there anything that we can do to combat this?

I’ve been in the military for 11 years, then been working as a contractor in combat zones the last five years.

I dunno, 20% of my fellow combat vet buddies?
