@Chris Seveney & @Jay Hinrichs Together you raised a good topic of discussion which is the new age Co-GP.

It sounds like you are in a great position at your age. 

Ranking in order though...1) Prices will drop - 10-20% because the job market is getting tougher2) Salaries will increase - 3-4% per year to keep up with inflation3) Interest rates will drop - 100-150bps as people worry less about inflation4) Unfortunately, the dream of a house with a white picket fence will be out of reach for many, especially before the age of 40.

I can only speak to the Texas market, where malls that focus on creating consumer experiences (coffee shops, kids play area, entertainment-based tenants) are still performing well even in this age of online shopping.  

Being a normal person and giving someone a heads up has not bit me, yet.In addition to what the law requires, I always shoot the tenant a heads up either via text, call, or email.If they are mostly responding to email, then shoot them an email.Emojis and gifs work wonders in today's day in age.

If you have a slow leak...coverage is less likely especially with aged plumbing.To the original poster, Salil.
