Coming in and making an offer after nothing for months on. a dying listing is also worth considering. 

I let them know that I also believe that it is worth looking to a market that has favorable rental laws. 

Some outreach to local companies with a transient workforce may be worth your time - you'd have 1 lease rather than 5 (1 per bedroom). 

If it's worth $1.3 million today, it will be worth $3 million or more in 20 years, you'll have paid off the debt (or most of it), you'll earn at least $3 million in cash flow over those 20 years, and you'll have tax benefits.

Was it worth it? 

So it could take a decade to get to todays market rent. 2) it’s almost impossible if not impossible to non-renew a tenant, especially if you’re not an owner occupant. 3) As a seller, even if I could remove paying tenants I never would without a non-refundable payment from a potential buyer that covers all vacancies for 6 months if they fail to complete the purchase. 4) You MIGHT say as a buyer that’s worth it.

I also kept my first home and it is paid off now and worth approximately $150k, with current renters. 

An argument can be made that you will generate a higher net worth there than say middle of nowhere Alabama.3.

They simply did not desire to spend more time than it was worth to recover the money from Airbnb.

Quote from @Casey Wilson: Hi there, I was wondering if any Detroit-metro experts from the PB community could offer advice on what areas in the Detroit-metro area might be worth exploring for rental properties (ranging from single family homes to 5+ unit apartment complexes).
