A health cult?

Sorry I know this one is going to be painful for many rookie investors just getting started who want to live on the beach with their mail order cash, but this is not they way investing works.

Removing tenants is a serious pain in New Jersey - though I realize those specific deals may be rehab and profit opportunities.

If I'm investing out of market, I want to be sure the location isn't a pain to get to.

It has to do with almost all of the lots being very steep and also needing septic which require surveyors and health dept reviews and surveyors being backed up for months.  

I do not like this as obviously if a business account is only accumulating rent from 1 property, it wouldn't accrue the cash in each as quickly as it would if all of the rents were funneled into one account.. and it makes paying the bills a bit of a pain on each of the properties as I am having things done to the properties, lawn care, etc.. constantly has me making owner investment deposits into each to cover initial expenses associated with the properties.. etc. 

It's a real pain to enforce but it's worth it.The majority of carriers right now have a loss rule on new business that varies but goes something like this... they will not accept your new policy if you have a loss in the last 3 or 5 years.
