They have more skin in the game then you do.Make sure you get clear title.

Keep in mind that while there is an exemption to the Fair Housing Act.....most states that have a state level Fair housing law do not typically provide the same exemptions as the national law.

but it also has a couple shortfalls: - Low to fair rents at best - Low rent appreciationI bought fairly smart, but still not smart enough to consider it an immediate good return.

What I can also tell you is that as an owner in NY, the landlord laws are very much designed to protect a tenant as opposed to here in Detroit where the laws are designed more fairly to protect both the tenant and the landlord.

A good one will also have skin in the game and will even be able to bring new acquisitions to your attention.

It's fairly easy for small portfolios.
