Some people can't stomach the nanosecond MTM of the stock market. 

Over time by not short selling with the fear of the herds of a market crash they do better than others.I can tell many investors can't stomach the ups and down of the stock market.

Lenders generally don't like writing loans with durations longer than this because they stomach all of the interest rate risk and without a secondary market to sell to the risk would be even higher.  

The investor who owned them was moving to another city and didn't have the stomach to be a long distance landlord.  

You'd better have a strong stomach and tolerance for risk and be careful with title research. 

Certainly you have to have the stomach for this because these same folks can get wiped out on a single deal. 

Nothing wrong with it, but that strategy wont work for me, i.e. buying several properties at that price point and managing them, and their tenants, and being impacted by their tenants lack of job stability, etc.I can probably stomach one sizable issue, than deal with many smaller issues together.

This also depends on your situation and stomach for the tenants.

My bet is I will get the standard finance kind of answer which is short term rates are best, go with variable or if you can't stomach that then five year fixed.

If you can, I would do as many Owner Occupied small multi family's as you can stomach.
