It may be $200/mo out of the money, but anything intrinsic right now in an anti-investment period(like right now where holding cash > investments) likely has major draw backs.

With a landlord in the Whitehouse no matter how anti immigration he is, it is extremely unlikely that the government would decide to crack down on landlords more than they have in the past.  

I am hearing that the washington state anti-flipping law (the requirement that a licensed contractor be on title if purchased and sold within one year) is being lifted by the end of this month.

Texas has anti-S.L.A.P. statutes which help dismiss suits from bad, though truthful, publications. 

That's kind of an inflammatory statement so can I ask you for more details?

And New Jersey has Anti-Eviction laws, which make New Jersey hostile to Landlords.

Laws also change that can weaken the structure such as anonymity in Swiss accounts has been severely curtailed in the new anti terrorism laws. 

It could also drive increased anti STR laws.

@ curt davis while i'm as anti-credit card as much as anyone, I do disagree with you in that, in some instances for some people, it can work.
