I'd call some other investors landlords and prop managers and figure it out.It also could be that your 1/1 is underbuilt compared to the market product... lots of factors here buddy!

Imagine if you had a catastrophIc fire caused by the tenant in the basement and the insurance company said tough luck buddy you now owe on a 100 grand ash heap

A buddy and I have been discussing for awhile finding an investment property together. 

I came here looking for productive and positive feedback, neither you nor your buddy has done that.

My buddy in santa barabara is building at $600-$1600/sf... so $450 would be a bargain... :) not to mention not all contractors have the same business model.

You are not buddy buddy with this person and you shouldn't with any of your tenants.   

So he's telling me that he's got it arranged with a buddy of his to do the move with him. 2) He has a brain injury & goes from being super nice to outright nasty, freaking out on me (when I try to encourage him to get on with his move).

I'm also invested into a gun shop with a buddy that while I haven't received a paycheck as of yet, I enjoy it and can see myself doing it full time along with my growing real estate investments.

Like my buddy who was buying in Atlanta in 2013 and rapidly scaled up to 25 SFRs.

I had a buddy send this to me to look at buying.
