For instance, how did the due diligence "come back as clean" and the "leases were solid" if the rent was not paid up to date and paid REGULARLY?  

I'm in a small town with nobody to really network with on a regular basis.

They can test even the sharpest investors.Another buddy of mine, who’s based in Austin, had a client that found herself caught off-guard by a last-minute inspection delay on her Oregon property.. from what I’ve heard in Forbes, the local market’s short supply of exchange-worthy replacements didn’t help either.

The other option is a water supply line, but that would typically resulting a steady leak and the damage would occur faster.Really think about what is above that space that could cause the issue.

Good thing is they don't have rules about the interior remodeling (except the regular county permitting process).

Given Covid related material and supply shortages, should I plan additional buffer time around my contractor's estimates. 

Eventually, the supply of essentially free house and/or suckers runs out, or law enforcement catches on, or some combination of those factors.

for some of us "regular folks", a tidbit of info here to lower the appetite if you are not in that class of investments:"Regulation D, Rule 506(c)" refers to a specific exemption under the U.S.

Sure, you are going to be getting/saving the Realtor commision, but in order to do that, you need to spend the investment into the Real Estate supplies that get you there.Thanks, I am certainly aware of the MLS benefits and agree. 

A nice but rental quality unit gets 1500-1650 regularly in that area depending on the size and finishes.
