Your choice: Listen to the agent selling it to you and reaping the potentially large comission or listen to someone who knows the tricks and secrets and then go buy it from whomever you want.

My friend said even if this person could be struggling and be late a couple of times a year or may not make 1 month rent once a year, since she is a long term tenant per her past and paid her rent without fail every month, and is motivated to make the new rental situation work for her financially, long term, if she stays 5 years, although occasionally could struggle a bit, I still will do better than most other tenant choices (frequent turn over, etc.)My rent is still covered by my past tenant at the moment even though the property is vacant as the Lease has stipulations for that the past tenant has honored faithfully.

I honestly find landlording very boring and after many years its not fun.I also have thought of reparing it and then handing it off to a PM company and holding it for longer but dont know if it will be worth it.In this situation, it ultimately depends on your long-term financial goals and personal preferences.If you are not enjoying landlording and find it to be a hassle, selling the property as is may be the right choice for you.
