However, I want to remind you that the same mentality that allowed you to first build your wealth still exists and is retained within you.

The owner isn't dead but appears to be suffering from dementia + addiction (ain't that a mental illness now).  

The parent choosing to keep the temp at an unsafe temp with children could be a sign of mental health issues and they may need to take the children away to keep them safe. 

Also, in your response to @Rahma Zaghari, do you mean that a landlord needs to mentally detach from the house/property and treat it as a job rather than be emotionally attached to it?

Thus, there is very much a "gold-rush" mentality in this sector.

It's like buying a suit of armor to bring to a pillow fight.This herd mentality, where everyone blindly follows the latest 'sophisticated' trend without understanding the why and the how, is not just amusing but financially draining.

I have a strong passion for nature and mental/ physical rest and recuperation but don’t want to get to far over my head to begin with, want to take this step by step.

Then starts the $750 a day fines and the lien.The only possible problem might be this - he says some people (the ones with a mental/hoarding disorder) will not surrender even with the fines.

@Paul SandhuI've heard of that strategy but my husband is averse to it... he's risk averse to a lot of stuff but it balances my Ready, Fire, Aim mentality.

Are you mentally prepared to deal with difficult tenant situations.
