But it still created trouble in the past when some tenants wanted to leave earlier due to a deteriorating relationship.  

Additionally, we like to look at rent trends over the past 5 years, average leasing times, % of homeowners to tenants for the market as a whole and specific neighborhoods, tax structure for both properties and income and affordability.

I have spent the past several years studying market trends, analyzing potential investment properties, and building a network of industry experts.I'm specifically looking for a fellow investor located in the New York area who is interested in collaborating on initial buy and flip projects.
