Another expense is replacing items that are broken, stolen, or worn out over time. 

Not only are they horrible at communication, a stove was stolen from the property when the tenants who weren't paying rent moved out. 

We received this letter from Toledo LMHA Lucas County's Section 8 administrator.I don't know if they had a data breach and a bunch of landlord and client personal information was stolen or if they lost their server and backups.

With 16yrs ahead of us, they already been lied to /stolen/manipulated from but they will never brag to you about their failures. and that is why you believe doctors make the worst investors.

I recently learned they are being sued because one property they managed one of the people touring it, trashed the place and stolen everything including light fixture/faucets.

And the new AC unit (seller put in) was stolen right before move in - thieves climbed a 7 foot fence.

The seller want me to pay 1%emd through Bitcoin , thenhe'll show me the house.

If diligent and patient investing strategies don’t sound fun, you can always just throw it all into bitcoin.

I didn't realize the construction work is paid out of pocket and then reimbursed, so I had to nuke a lot of my bitcoin to pay for the first 12k worth of work to get the project started, so unless your lender gives you some construction money up front, you'll need to account for that too.

Mention goal is to make the most, then that would be something like bitcoin but also the opportunity to lose the most.
