There are no good reasons for paying someone else to live in your house.Any reason you might think of, are told, that says it is OK is a rationalization. 

Nothing sedates rationality like large doses of effortless money.

@Naeem Boucher - It's a very rough and general rule of thumb that you should not use. lolIn my opinion you should only apply an expense ration for a certain type of property after you've run enough full analysis to recognize the pattern that applies.  

Chicago is too big and too fast  to rationalize without boots on the ground with a strong sense  of situational awareness.  

There were long lines at any station that had gas, and the stations were rationing, so once you finally got to the pump, you could only have a few gallons.

Having said that, all problems can't be solved, and tenants with personality disorders do not behave rationally. personality disorders are intractible, and largely unteatable; as a result I work very hard to avoid tenants with personality disorders as they cannot be reasoned with.

I'm tired of paying high rent and considering starting to check some places in Queens, which I think is a little more stable and rational in terms of price, even though it'll be less and slower appreciation.  

Maybe you can guilt her over writing that nasty letter after showing her your rational analysis of the house.

I know most of the information is on here, the onus is on me to find it or hope someone will comment on my post and provide a rational viewpoint.  

Most tenants will understand rational decisions and will appreciate knowing that they can trust you to hold up your end of the relationship if they hold up theirs.
