I've sold rentals before and almost always was asked for a copy of my Sch E.Also during the due diligence and inspection, try to talk to the tenants directly to confirm how much they pay, and also if there are known issues that haven't been repaired (roof leaks, frozen pipes in the same area every winter, etc).

Unless a costly plumbing pipe upgrade is required, I will go with tankless since $18 monthly maintenance isn't that big of deal. 

Is the water leaking from a pipe, damaged roof, clogged gutters, or some other source?

It’s getting exhausting trying to steer these BP posters in the right direction.

I would never invest in any area that snows, or pipes freeze.

Anyone who smokes a dream pipe will be hugely disappointed.

exhausted?)

Even if the tenant owes the money, dealing with these kinds of tenants can be exhausting, which is likely why the tenant is acting this way: she wants to wear you down.

Replacing multiple furnaces, water pipes breaking, noisy tenant I had to evict, etc etc.

I would have really liked to invest where i live, but Minnesota really does not have the price point for neighborhoods that will help scale Brrr.As I am just starting out i would like to start in zipcodes which are not already exhausted with Brrr investors.
