Other properties and other opportunities will emerge, as long as you keep grinding, analyzing deals & viewing properties.Good luck out there!

That business is definetly a grind.

I've attempted to wholesale and it costs a lot of marketing $$$ to distinguish yourself from the rest of the noise in such a saturated field. 

If it is a long term tenant, he should have had the carpets cleaned periodically rather than just grinding in the dirt.

The main complaint was from residents and typical, noise, unknown visitors, property values hurt, etc...Would love not know opinions, especially from anyone local.

The grind of the schedule working nights, weekends, and dealing with all of the emotions that home sellers and buyers bring is taxing.

It was a grind but as Hamp said, you need to have an exit strategy.

Biggest problem I have heard from others who have done the same is the noise level.

I imagine everyone is dealing with rising rates so this is probably white noise but the rate on the HELOC went from 4.25% to 8.00% in approximately 6 months.

25% for flood when creek rises, fire, non paying tenant, roof repairs, tree falls on duplex and insurance deductible is $2500, tenant puts toy down toilet and clogs main line, dog which you did not allow bites someone, disposal stops working, property manager 10%, property taxes increase because they see you did rehab or you changed the title, noise fine as tenant decides to become a drummer, trash bill, ants or vermin and you have to hire a exterminator, mold claim, planning department inspection fail, city fee as business, legal fees, CPA fees, insurance goes up, Imperial Beach business license and landlord permit/ annual fire safety inspection/gas co inspection $1500+, heaven forbit the Coastal Commission says you dumped foul water, to name a few
