I thought a company like that would just take the "cream".

Low Income affordable housing - tend to be rougher on the units, they get a basic 1 tone paint, inexpensive flooring package, no disposal or ice maker or dishwasher - Deep Clean and Safety is my concern. 

Anything beyond this is icing on the cake).Given this prioritization, I agree this wouldn't be the best financial investment to maximize returns.

Scumbag boyfriend of a tenant who had moved himself in claimed a 'slip n fall' on ice.

You forget to remove the ice from the driveway and the old man falls breaking his hip. 

Just a broken ice maker on the fridge probably would have cost more than this.

At some point the tenants ice maker line leaked and they never told us about it. 

So, the question for me is always, how many years of STR cream am I most likely to get before I have to downgrade them into LTRs.

I'm attracted to the "infinite returns" concept, where I figure how much of my own money has gone into the deal and after I've refied and got all my own money back out, it's all cream from there.

So, if you didn't put salt out and a worker slipped on the ice..
