I would caution you to make sure you have the Intestinal Fortitude to be a Landlord before you travel down this trail. 

Act with grace, strength, and fortitude fast.If you are selling no point in changing Management Co but you need to start the eviction process and get tenant out as no new buyer will want them and they can obstruct your sale.

If I had the very rare fortitude to save $100k (only 15% of Americans have $100k or more in savings) then I should be able to invest it any way I see fit.

Again, just be careful, and make sure you have enough reserves, an exit plan, and the mental fortitude to persevere if something goes bad.

The only key is having sufficient amounts of capital reserves so that you can survive a potential economic downfall without being forced to sell the home at inopportune times.Furthermore, if you can't pull the trigger and buy a home while prices are going up, what makes you think you have the internal fortitude to buy when prices are going down? 

It may sound daunting at first, but it can be done if one has the fortitude.

@Samuel Woods Harrington it takes a lot of fortitude to put yourself out there, be careful though when offering free labor.

And I'll tell you what, beyond the point that they didn't pay rent for 1.5 years out of 2, they trashed the house so badly and entirely that the sister of that guy who lived there with his family, came to clean up after them feeling bas for the landlord, even advised to police officer against entering the house, that revolting it was - 3 dogs' feces IN THE HOUSE everywhere, raw nasty meat and intestines all around that they fed to their 3 dogs (the dogs appeared sick and looked abused), that was all over their yard and by their neighbors as well including our own, with green bottle flies everywhere, and it was in summer, when it stunk enormously!

The pine oil loosens debris and helps keep things moving...kind of like a healthy intestinal track when you use probiotics.
