Would like to learn more about KC landlords and general business climate.  

@Ginny WestThe tenant downstairs needs to be arrested for being "drunk and disorderly".

Here is a link if you want to learn more. https://studentloanhero.com/featured/public-service-loan-forgiveness-do-you-qualify/I know this program has a lot of questions around it currently with the political climate.

We have used them in colder climates as well.

I know slabs hold up well in warmer climates, but does anyone currently own a property on a slab here in Chicago/Northern Illinois that can share their experience?

We look for states/MSA's where there is stable market appreciation, positive employment trends, decent population density and lower risk of climatic volatility (hurricanes, tornados, etc).

It's almost like Post Traumatic stress disorder with my experience with credit and financing.

I explained I wasn't interested in "taking a ride up with him", the home has been uninhabited for nearly 6 years in a harsh ND climate, it has some mold and minor water damage, some asbestos tile, the tax assessment for mowing and snow removal annually is 1200$ not including all other associated carrying costs and that I already have a relationship with the home owner and they are willing to amend the purchase agreement and close... easy peasy.  

@Scott Meyers  I have no where near the experience you have in storage I just owned a little boutique one in Portlandia.. it had 44 units and 7k of office above them.. nice building.it was on the river so I condo platted it and sold the storages to all the house boat folks who lived across the levi and turned the office space ( which was a bear to rent) into climate controlled storage wine and such.. then sold those off individually to other higher end type folks.. we did quite well on this project..

We already have tons of climate control storage units and I already own storage units.
