It almost always costs you nothing (seller pays traditionally) and will educate you on the market(s) and tenancy profiles. 2) Buy a property(s) with long term (10+ year lease);3) Look for corporate credit rated tenants (think Walgreens, Starbucks, etc) on a Triple Net (very minimal LL responsibilities- think roof & structure) OR Absolute Triple Net Lease (no landlord responsibilities).4) Most credit tenants are experts in location selection (which again, minimizes your downside risk).... but as a rule of thumb I always prefer locations on traffic lit, hard corners with great/easy access and high Vehicle Per Day counts.My 2 cents.  :-)

This was a lit up, stand alone cabin with our car parked 10 feet from the front porch...they must have been totally wasted. 

We renovated the kitchen and bathroom completely and added recess lights throughout the condo with bright lights which really lit up the room What was the outcome?

@Dennis L. -  it’s really quite common for people to use terms incorrectly (I know i have!).  

And there was nothing about it being free but when a lit match burns near dry brush, the entire forest will go up in flames.

I would try some blessing or incantations from a witch doctor or psychic medium....OR take well lit quality pictures of an immaculately clean/maintained unit and lower the price $50 per week and/or put wording that says something to the effect of OBO and/or be more flexible with your terms/criteria...but still use supernatural forces whenever possible!

The cigarette but lit the deck on fire and it caused over $200,000 damage to the unit.

Getting these installed throughout can turn a dim dark place into "shiny and new" feeling.As it relates to kitchens and baths, definitely look at your competition and go a step above if you can.
