Thanks to COVID, for a couple of years, you can actually make enough money to be cash flow positive even if you hire a property manager AND have mortgage payments. 

Actually, I can name one, and she's in Cincinnati, OH.

@Brett K. we manage in Class C areas, so have to deal with this a lot.Options:1) Boardup - pretty useless as easy to rip the off and advertises the property as vacant.2) Armor Guard door frame reinforcement with temp double-key deadbolts.

What type of properties are these and what do you mean by it not being "cost-effective" for you?

She is moving out and next management company sent me a questionnaire and one asked "Did they have any animals on your property?

Have that property be in default3.

I'm wondering if you can help advise on this situation.My mother currently resides in a property located in Los Angeles County.

Though it may cash flow well based on their current debt service, when you compare the income it produces to the equity they have is it actually even a good investment for them from an ROI perspective or would they be better off liquidating and redeploying?

Assuming these are for short-term loans, such as for flips, @Keith Groshans, you could do what we do and let the borrower keep the money and pay everything when they sell the property.
