I don't know how MFA chose my tenant, but she trashed my home, several thousand dollars to fix what she did.

It took me 10 years and I had the benefit of starting when RE was cheap.A business has literally the opposite character: it's primary strength is cash flow.

This can end up costing thousands more dollars, which can obviously affect your margins. 

They literally build these cabins on the sides of mountains. 

Make a contingent that the XX amount on the Cashiers check or wire will be used from the home owner to pay off the net pay off mortgage and then buy the house for a thousand bucks or something in that order.

After they left she called me, they used heat to kill the bedbugs and in doing so they literally melted all of the mini-blinds and the LVP buckled so bad that it all had to be replaced.

This guy claimed to have hundreds of homes which was a complete lie and then drives idiots around the Philadelphia hood in a party bus for thousands of dollars. 

The 3rd thing that has reshaped my entire opinion of the tax advantages of real estate, is seeing my 88 grandfather holding five quite valuable illiquid properties, long story short it’s a mess, it’s causing family drama, he is in zero shape physically or mentally to manage them, the all have cap-ex needs, again these were amazing buy’s literally multiple properties he bought for under 50k that are now worth over a million but there is probably a time and a place for owning real estate, so I don’t really have a need to own more than maybe a few properties into retirement.

Even if I were found guilty, the cost would be in the thousands, not in the millions.

I have literally shared the communication between myself, seller, and your Realtor/Mom.
