Think carefully before you do this. 

The heavy cleaning and repair costs after longer stays are definitely pain points but I've seen my clients make it work by screening the tenants more carefully for MTRs, doing bi-monthly checks to catch issues early, and writing clear lease terms about maintaining the property.

Also, I think, general maintenance is centralized so 1 handyman could care for all units, which makes it easier to manage.

I stayed mostly with Multifamily as other sectors like Student housing, Senior care, Hospitality and NNN have too much risk for me. 

Take care!  

Although not a big deal, my tenant that is renting my property through THD is typically more demanding with an attitude of "I don't care, the insurance company pays for everything".

They don’t have to be an investor themselves (although if they are it might help) and really just need to be super attentive to your needs.

Cities usually don't care if the OWNER lives in the basement, just tenants.You could use the extra income to offset cost of finishing basement and more.

Not sure if Im over thinking it and people dont care or maybe one I day get a bad hit.

We are a small company and take personal care of our clients.
