Even at 2%, you won't cash flow positive if someone trashes the unit ever 6-12 months and moves out without paying the last month's rent.If this sounds like your cup of tea, welcome to my world: SW Missouri.

Sure, if a tree falls on the roof, that should kick in.

I bondowed the dents in the front door, scraped popcorn ceilings, trimmed the trees, replaced the floors (with luxury vinyl plank long before it was the fad.)

Unlicensed uninsured tree trimmers the landlord hired, downed limbs on house power line causing huge power surges.

Not my cup of tea, but she has been producing fairly stable income from this strategy.

If you don't mind spending some $$$, then Canton, Fed Hill, or Fells Point are good neighborhoods for young professionals.I'm looking to househack myself, but because I have kids we're looking for areas with decent schools and some trees (ie in the county).

I'd leave it, it's not everyone's cup of tea...but it is a great selling point for a lot of people!
