FT. detached garage- High Turnover (4 years, 4 different tenants costing $9K to $15K per turnover)- City permits- Occupancy Tax- Landlord Tax- City inspections (Always finding something for me to fix, more money every single year)  - Lots of nickel and dimeing from the city- Property taxes are pretty low.Be sure you do your research on the area you invest in and the income families make in that area to help maybe reduce the turnover.Yes, the cash flow looks good but beware the expenses I listed can offset that cash flow.

I currently work a per dime position at a local hospital, but currently they are over staffed and my hours have been decreasing.

Quality of their renovations are garbage and their in house PM systems nickel and dime you at every turn.

@Sam Watson, as I understand it, build-to-suit is when the landowner has the building constructed (on their dime) to the tenant's specifications, and that the tenant just leases the building (and of course, the specificity of the building is reflected in the lease rate).  

I don't want to get nickel & dimed to death with the big national banks so I will begin researching my local banks.

You are highly unlikely to get a dime out of this person.

I'd like to throw in there that enjoying wealth doesn't mean spending every dime of it.

Personally, I don't want to be the type of landlord that squeezes every nickel and dime out of my tenants.

You will never pay me a dime.

The large property management companies on Kauai are run poorly and will nickel And dime you to death with fees.
