Although the terms of the unexpected new lease are not ideal, that was not the deal breaker.

Usually unexpected repairs.

Some component materials are in short supply, so raw components may be more expensive or in short supply.Your best bet may be looking for something in stock at a big box store.

. - over last 2 months property manager has made about $750 extra payment while I have lost about $2000 unexpected losses and it’s all a result of the property managers decisions.

Put some unexpected repairs into your budget and get as much information from the existing tenants and the home inspector.

I want to note that ethically, I do not feel comfortable collecting rent from her next of kin so the component of obligation of the estate is largely irrelevant.You are also apparently supposed to secure all of her belongings and note anything that is removed by family members that you allow to visit the property.  

The chips, the components in your fridge etc. are frequently manufactured in multiple countries before being assembled in the US.

My personal one was more simple as it didn't require the Docusign component. 

If you're trying to avoid the emotional component if REI and not necessarily looking to invest where you've got family, it's most often a numbers game and researching markets.

@Supada L.Yes, burdensome unexpected costs are part of REI, but I'm curious about the inspection reports dating from last year that you mentioned.
