It was an intense struggle for the first 3 years.

My husband and I both work full time and we have a 15 month old son so we want to avoid the more management-intensive C/D properties.

From what I have learned, it can be a very profitable business, while also requiring larger up-front investments and remaining labor (or labor-cost) intensive. 

They can be more maintenance intensive, but I wouldn't shy away completely on a good boat.

Land is also far more capital intensive.

And he is getting more and more intense in his political views.

I suppose the marketing hype about passive income and relating that to being a landlord has caused this type of thought process.. some landlording can be not real time intensive it really depends on the assets them selves and the tenant base.If i look at clients of mine that i sold larger MF units to here on the west coast that are solid B class.. 

The cash intensive situations do concern me.

DSCR loans are capital intensive and typically not a great product for new investors.

Since the cost is split between 4 to 6 tenants people don't even blink an eye.This probably isn't for everyone as it is more time intensive, but I've found that since my homes are nicer, the tenants treat them really well.
