@Paloma Wodehouse I started by going to Housing Court sessions and hearing the Cases and their "Dispensation of Justice".

That outlines who gets what, and you avoid probate court.

Lets say I die with $200,000 in the bank and right before I die I remember the time I had to go to court to evict one of my tenants..... that would be so sad... 

Worried about saturation, thinking about going hard on the themes to appeal to visiting families.

MA has a lot of courts, not a small state as you know.    

These areas tend to attract high-quality tenants and provide consistent passive income, which is a great foundation for building your portfolio.If you’d like, I’d be happy to share some insights about these types of markets and why they’re appealing to investors.

While my husband and his ex make a similar income and do not exchange child support due to us pointing that out in court a couple of years ago, she actively request all financial documents that she possibly can and examines our taxes, etc. 

It was a long and expensive journey, but eventually, we won the court battle and were able to move them out.After they were gone, we cleaned up the house and decided to list it as-is instead of flipping it.

It's set up to be accessible and appealing to your audience.

Later on in your investing journey the safety and low management of expensive, appreciating properties will become appealing.
