I guess my challenge right now is to define the strategy and balance all the factors, such as job and population growth (value increase), cashflow (demand & supply market, interest rate, property tax, maintenance cost), and risk control (insurance etc). 

I am worried about having an intermediary taking control of my property and renting to tenants I haven't screened.

My post was an emotional response.

Managing the operation myself could save money and provide better control compared to working with out-of-state properties.

I recommend you find a way to give these animals away before you lose control and end up on a reality TV show.

yes, on paper it makes sense to run by the room because you can technically maximize your rental income but you have to consider the following things:- who has control of the thermostat?

That means making calculated numbers based decisions, not emotional ones.

But the one thing that you can control is your creativity and how far are you willing to go with risk . 

It is secured with  👇 Controlled Interest: We include our investors as a 51% controlling interest member on the borrower’s operating agreement.

I'm not stating that it's inherently wrong, but aspects of it have gotten out of control.
