Joel Owens Do you rent to contractors as tenants or not ? What is your tenant mix ?

I may have an eye for Mediterranean themes; however, I can't even think how to suggest a house to a southwest style/theme.Personally if I have a building that needs constant work I'd have no problem renting to a contractor/handyman; however, if they do not have steady income I may ask for another reference.Also I won't rehab a rental the same as I do a flip.

Alyn Shek 7 Apt Building analysis/advice

Alyn I would look at the annual rent growth trend for the unit mix of your apartments for the location.As I said earlier if supply is low and demand is high you can increase the rents by a bunch and accelerate the CAP.If you are real busy with your job and want turn key then yes you will usually get a smaller CAP for that luxury.As you said for your goals the bigger return isn't as important.At the end of the day it's your life and your investment and money so it's your call.I have some investors that want an 8 cap,some a 12 cap,and some a 16 cap going in.I tell them fine if you want a property needing major work in a war zone.There is nothing in my area in a good location trading at more than a 10 cap period that is in good shape.The reason is other new investors are giddy with a 10% return versus a treasury or CD giving them 1 to 2 % if they are lucky or their stocks are tanking hard.It's just all relative to your investing style as to what will make sense.

George P. Windows are condensating on the inside

The second cause is high indoor humidity, thats why if you have a whole house humidifier the recommended humidity setting is lower the lower your expected outdoor air temperature is, to prevent condensation.
