A couple months ago I was looking at a triplex that came up for sale in a close suburb,   long story short despite suffering from long term poor management, needing substantial exterior repairs, and having damage and 2 vacant and gutted units left over from tenants-from-hell it ended up selling to somebody else for 30% over asking,  needing another 20% of the asking price (at least) in repairs.  

Sellers are of course suffering from this.

As a result, our credit scores also suffered.

However we don't suffer from the "I bought it for $789,000 and now it's worth $50,000 and I need braces for my kid" either though.

Now you lost a good long term tenant and then it does become your problem real quIck when your bottom line suffers due to conflicts .

There will be pain and suffering for those who go first.

North Arlington just doesn't really have a large swath that suffers from the same problem. 

Thank you sir, may I have another.PS is for Pain and Suffering that a refi is.  

Elderly owner of 20 unit complex selling portfolio but suffered significant tax consequences ( assume capital gains) when sold her previous property. 

Since I incurred the cost of removing the tree and fixing their house they knew I had suffered an expense as well, and with the tree being gone now there's nothing else I can do.
