One of my favorite books that forces you to start with the end in mind and weigh the cost/reward of every decision is a book called Lifeonaire by Shaun McCloskey and Steve Cook.

When we flipped the switch and decided to grow, we changed from the mentality of "stay small and keep it all" to "risk it all and reap the reward".  

Rather, you need to convince her you understand the risks and possible rewards and that those balance out in your favor. 

It's not a hobby for me its a marketing tool and also rewarding by helping others and getting help as well.

@Charles M.So reward the tenant for stealing services and not paying his rent ?

However it's got me thinking about the risk/reward of their platform. 

The effort/reward math doesnt pencil to me. 

You have to look at risk/reward ratio when buying properties for investment.

So if he literally just followed the law, he'd be rewarded for it. 

Also, for C- areas you should be getting 1.5%+. 1% does not build in enough reward for the risk and hassles you'll encounter with tenants and property maintenance (they're mainly all older homes with varying degrees of deferred maintenance).
