The kids were, predictably, the worst management flakes you could imagine, born to privilege and completely unaware of it.Because at the time the socialists pretty much ran Greece, I did a number of lessons with high ranking public servants.

They said it's been status quo for years, there was a small hiccup when it was introduced but quickly went to normal.Can't say I can predict the future but I agree with @Russell Brazils

Forecasts/predictions aren't worth the paper they're written on, which is why I generally don't read them.

I typically prefer to avoid condos since I can’t predict HOAs and you want to be informed on zoning restrictions in the areas. 

Military get paid BAH, which means rents are fairly predictable. 

I predict the local PMs will all be out of business within 8 years. 

We are hesitant to give up a predictable income and steady cash flow.

Though, keep in mind that HELOC rates can fluctuate with the market, potentially exposing you to higher interest rates down the line.With a cash-out refinance, you'll typically have a fixed rate, providing stability/predictability in your monthly payments.

I have a handful of rentals in Ramsey County - after a property is updated and sold the assessed value can jump up dramatically, but then the future increases are much slower and more predictable in the following years. 

What about leaking roofs or accidents you can't predict?
