In my market (Indianapolis) most of my investors prefer 3 bedroom homes because they cater to families, which is going to be the biggest rental demographic.

Definitely food for thought, we have a slightly different rent spread into the 3 bedroom from 2 bedroom.  

I by no means had it rough but it was not easy. having my mom explain why she could not buy me a toy because she needed to buy food for us was not a great memory.

For instance, there are some companies out there that cater to the landlord market and others that will allow a rental property or two if they also insured your primary home and cars. 

The food/arts/entertainment has also exploded over the past 5 years!  

Overall I'm pretty confident that the deal is good but I could use some outside opinions just as food for thought.

In the past I have written off a per diem expense for both lodging and food when my husband ( the single owner of an llc) travels from Florida to Michigan to work on our business.

@Lesley Resnickthanks for your opinion, I'd like to respectfully point out a couple things...and please understand I'm not arguing for inflation/deflation, only offering food for thought.  1.

Just food for thought.

New furnace, roof is 4 years old, area is great with tons of commercial retail and food stores close with a movie theatre.
