Don't get me wrong, its essential; but it's essential to make sure you can stay solvent, not dip into rainy day funds and get loans approved.

It is essential to have cash-flowing properties IMO to make sure you stay solvent, get approved for loans, mitigate risk if the market falls and make sure you don't have to sell or refinance constantly to raise funds.

*clap clap clap clap*A much maligned group, we saw the double standard during the pandemic: "you businesses stay open and continue to provide your services even if your customers are not paying you" and it continues with the inflation-based rent increases we are forced to levy today in order to stay solvent.

The problem with that is that banks could look at that as the business isn’t solvent to exist on its own for daily business and that is a problem in itself. 

I disagree whole heartily that keeping all these venture capitalists and tech start ups solvent is looking out for the little guy. 

Such transactions are far more risky than a normal lease:Triple net lease offloads these responsibilities to the leasee:all maintenance of any/every descriptionproperty taxesmortgage paymentsLessor collects rents and has ZERO expenses.It should be clear, that even though the leasee may have the obligation for the above, it doesn't he's solvent enough to fulfill it - - and that can create badly maintained property, tax liens and even foreclosure that you were not aware of.Roll the dice - - it's a Crap-shoot!!

This is not something you want to DIY, as the eviction process is complicated and mistakes mean you must start over (from what I hear a CA eviction is the worst state to be do it in).If you are not confident that you will be able to remain solvent through the process, you are probably better off selling it to an investor who can absorb the loss while he removes the tenant.

Remember, the market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.  

A"...because we feel more comfortable investing in a place that looks like it would attract responsible, reliable, financially solvent tenants.

Most banks are flush with cash and very solvent.
