Wait until you hear your tenant say "My daughter's a doctor and she made me start bat shots because of possible exposure to the bats" .

Mike the plan was never to develop a large real estate business the plan is to own a couple nearby rentals with smallest mortgages and low expenses therefore yielding as much + cash flow as possible..Therefore my work pension + investments + real estate cash flow will provide a good retirement monthly income...To be honest I have a pretty kick back stress free R.N job that pays a little over 6 figures with full medical benefits for me and my family not to mention life time medical insurance for me and my spouse when I reach 25 years of service.

IF you do it right, and barring any medical bills!

I had $47k of student loan debt from a pretty worthless MBA, $13k credit card debt due to car repairs, medical expenses from a car wreck, basically my life was a mess.

Account Closed ,Do you visit a doctor for their opinion or do you self diagnose?

The only collections you might choose to ignore are for medical procedures and maybe student loans.

Amusement parks, Major sports teams, Cultural events, etc.World class universities and medical careTransportation hub serviced by every major airlineLowest crime rates in the countryAll of those things help properties maintain value, and keep the demand for real estate strong.

There may be a back story (fight, medical issue, silly accident, etc.) but the black eye would only be part of the story.

The attorney practices law, the doctor practices medicine, I'd rather have either that didn't need to practice anymore, especially on me!

If your were a wealthy doctor whose money was making 1.5% and you could hook up with someone who could find the property, put the whole deal together and manage the partnership, get the rehab itself done at a big discount, and get it sold to where you make a very pretty profit...that's a pretty attractive offer.But again, this person really has to know what they are doing.
