@Red PetersonFirst off, congrats on having a paid off rental property that is great!

What are some red flags I need to keep an eye out for while I'm educating myself?

I've heard these come with a lot of red tape and have been cautioned against using them if possible.

Cops patrolled the red-light districts but by and large anything went, and someone came by to pick up the corpses.

I don’t think prince sparkle socks is going to take his foot off the throat of the oil industry until he’s out as leader.

This is a business and no point in running in the red. 

County (delays and red tape - though you can of course not have to deal with this for most improvements)-Prices are very high-Tenant-friendly state - it takes much longer to evictPros:-Tenants tend to stay longer-Property taxes are low VS purchase price-You can quickly fill a rental as demand is there - no matter what the asset class is-Utility companies are super helpful.

You can discuss the policy but do not bring Dem/Rep/Trump/Biden/Conserv/Lib/Red/Blue into this conversation.

Red flag #1.She constantly asked me how to do things. 

Happy to provide more info about myself, but will cut right to the chase:In today’s market, if you see a property listed for 4 months with 2 separate pending sales that did not go through, is it safe to say that is a red flag?
