You’re paying big money to target people who explicitly want to hold on to their homes, all in the hope of convincing them to sell.

If so, do the suggested prices seem to be paying off?  

How do I like tenants to pay rent?

Why should you pay for something that isn't your fault? 

.- Someone talked about crime and hard tenants (who don't pay - usually inherited ones)- not many economic opportunities to attract pool of people and boost area etcI'm looking at houses on both sides (Canada and USA) US, they are cheaper like 731 Pine Ave, Niagara FAlls NY 14301 going for $270,000 (5/2, 2700sq ft) but on Can side, it's like houses are in the US$400K - smaller sq ft.

If they haven’t been paying and causing problems why would you want them to stay?

Heck, some people might even pay more for the 'cool factor' of living in a 'small home'....I'd give it a go since you're a veteran of this RE stuff.

I'm light on capital so paying a mentor isn't an option, but happy to split revenue (pay as I learn). 

The government will pay on time all the time once it is set up completely.

You simply can’t ignore the risk of investing in an area that you’re not intimately familiar with.
