Most of the country seems to not know that the Rouge area and large parts of neighboring cities just experienced a flood that rivaled Katrina's impact on New Orleans (We are an hour away from NO.)  

I agree the misrepresentation has put a bitter taste in my mouth.

@Andrew Bayarena Property Managment is a very personal decision and opinions about them are very different and would rival in passion to a discussion about politics.

Some of the factors that make it desirable for Investors is affordability to buy into, great return on investment, positive cash flow potential and an economical growth rate that rivals other larger metropolitan cities.

I am old, bitter, and jaded.

Medical office rivals retail in per sq ft lease rates but as the landlord the tenant improvements are substantial. 

You will mentally just have to swallow the bitter pill of giving up cashflow that you worked hard to obtain.  

Licensed contractors have to be RRP-certified, treat the whole place like nuclear disaster strike, and get fined a ridiculous amount of money if any bags aren't taped closed properly (not that I'm bitter....).In all seriousness, the lead/asbestos stuff is likely a non-issue for that age of house, as it was built at the tail-end of all the changes taking place.  

Here's how the tenants that I have had in this situation with have chosen to spend their money:Out of my deep respect of my property manager I will disclose these have all been inherited tenants and not tenants that they placed.1) Buying sports car for weekend cruiser2) Not having to work (daughter living with mom off her social security check)3) Paying for movers to leave the property without notice while 2 weeks late on that month's rent4) DrugsYou don't have to count number 3, I'm just still bitter lol.So if a humane approach is to slowly increase the rents, which you have described as a normal occurrence and acceptable practice eventually you will still reach a point with 99% of people where you have priced them out of your property.

Thanks for helping out with this as i continue learning, I just figured out the BRRRR method may help me scale double time, but there are many more moving parts that a new investor could mess up, luckily I am a planner to the bitter end, so lets get this going!
