Not sure about today but if people are starving which of course with all the food handouts its quite rare from what I see.

This method provides several advantages against a traditional manager as I can cater my service and fees to the individual needs of my owners. 

Here's some food for thought:- Many of my first time investors know from the jump that they aren't going to be driving 5 hours round trip for every little item, and also know that they arent prepared to handle things like disputes, evictions, lease violations, etc.

Has a better ring to it.You realize this is the cost for your ticket for the event, your room, all your food and drinks and activities on the resort right?

And while travel is going to be expensive for any property, if you only have one in a market, the concept is the same with less rent: that $2,000 flight/hotel/rental car food for a one night visit, ties up a lot more of your gross when that gross is much lower. 

Food for thought.

Mold requires moisture and a food source (dust is sufficient).

Personally, I wouldn't totally disagree, but it is very much in the eyes of the beholder what "nice place to live" means.Based on your post, I would assume you are getting requests because you are a new landlord (maybe the old one was not a kind person, so tenants chose not to make any requests) and that you are asking them to pay more rent for a unit that is likely in worse condition than when they moved in.So now, you can either tell them no, or you can accommodate and potentially open up pandoras box of setting expectations that you will cater to all requests all the time, or as noted, you can remove yourself from the equation and hire a PM to handle the requests.

Look into loans that cater to investors, and consider speaking with a financial advisor about leveraging your stock investments.Property Type: Single-family homes or small multifamily units (like duplexes or triplexes) are often a good starting point for first-time real estate investors.
