Hi all - I'm married with one child so far, in my mid-30s.

Reasonable rates and options for a discount if rented more than (x) days.Make the home extra attractive buy some things that make the home stand out like games for both the parents and the kids.

Racism is worse than it's ever been in my entire life time or my parents lifetime.

Friend of mine wanted to unload it for his parents.

Furthermore, a big driver for me is to be able to care for both of my parents in their retirement, my auntie who recently lost her husband and help friends or strangers in need.Now I am looking to network and get more intimate with the market I am eyeing - and of course, continue to learn.- Oh, and I am a total nomad.

They have helped my parents retire comfortably, paid my kids way through college and been a great way to store and build wealth.

Once my parents told me our tenants bathroom was nicer than their own I quit upgrading unless I had a complaint or there was a serious issue.

Section 8 HUD tenants are usually families, or the elderly, or single parents that need these vouchers and properties to survive, they're not going to risk their livelihood so recklessly.Furthermore, I do agree that owners will all too often invest pennies on the dollar into a property and expect it to suffice.

(if I made $200k I would be taxes on 80k after taking the standard deduction and child tax credits, etc. 

So I will let this little medium term motel keep chugging along as the forgotten child and circle back next year.
