Many of these neighborhoods have flooded multiple times and, in talking to our insurance company and some of the prospective buyers for our home, FEMA can substantially raise premiums (think 15k year) and substantially drop coverage (eg 10k coverage) for some of these areas that chronically flood.

That mean that she has a severe mental condition, (bipolar disorder, major and chronic depression, severe eating disorder ect. ) she then has to demonstrate that the cat performs a service that helps her condition.

I would say the one thing that I believe will contribute to my success is my struggle with chronic illness. the strength of character I was forced to develop as well as my drive to get better despite the setbacks can help me avoid being derailed in my real estate journey.

Yes, you want proper notice to go inside but not show up at the door.To just stop by you are within your rights to do that--there is not any tenant expectation they won't get a visit by the owner (especially if chronically late and playing hide and seek).The tenant profile tells me they may just use your date/time appointment to be gone.... or unavailable.

You have to deal with the excessive moisture issue (poor ventilation, chronic leaking).Outlets not working in the kitchen is also not a big deal as long it's not a sign of major wiring problems (old wiring, rodent damage, fire damage, etc.).A single busted pipe is also not a big issue assuming it's the only busted pipe and not a sign of other possible leaks due to poor winterizing.

While this is true, it also leads to the fact that more elderly people are living with chronic conditions.

Are these people with chronic health issues that eventually prevent them from being successful?

Especially since you are not leaving a crappy job where you feel like being extorted and chronically underpaid (well, maybe the later LOL) while working way too much and at the same time being totally unhappy about everything in that job (at least you didn't say so).

Chronic late payments, bounced checks etc. however ultimately I was made whole and got rent for each month.

I've thought about a duplex, but at this point couldn't do any upkeep myself due to chronic neck pain, I may have been able to move ahead easier without the health issues?
