Thank for chip in Account Closed, but I don't think that's what I am looking for.

Also, anyone who has experience landlording in Kingston should feel free to chip in as well!

I am pretty sure op means .5%How about some blue chip dividend payers, via a fund, or muni bond fund?

We have a rental where groups of students have chipped in and leased a large house.

Chipping paint: LL responsibility. 

No chipped paint!

-Usually need more square-footage to repair- U&O is always going to be up your case and will wack you with even the smallest chip in the sidewalk, telling you that you need to drop 5-7k just in cement before you even get approved to touch your home. - Comping is not as cookie cutter as it is in the city, now you are usually dealing with different styles, build types, etc.Always feel free to reach out to me!

I don't think you will see too much increase in value/appreciation over time with that type of asset.As a general rule, I don't invest in Spartanburg as there are not too many blue chip companies there and I don't really see much development/population growth.
