Thanks BP for all the great brain food. 

Worst case scenario is that he burns down apartment due to leaving stove on or burning food.

Not to get political, but if the current budget passes, it could dramatically effect lower income tenants if there food stamps are cut and SSI benefit for one of their children are cut.

More food for thought on Self Storage, being more recession resistant than others:4 D's.

Food for thought

Is it even food?  

It wouldn't seem such an important thing really try and see where in relation to the freeway is this going to be,  And if you can look at the environmental impact report see if it gives a number about the vehicles that will be passing by every day,  Most of the casinos wont be local regulars like one might think,  If it's by the freeway there's were the bulk of the customers will come from and they will all need someone to make change clean stock food tend bar etc.,  those are YOUR pool of potential renters. 

I've lived here for about 8 years running, I'd be more than happy to give recommendations for whatever you may be looking for including food, fun, real estate, entrepreneurship, etc.

A small percentage gets their own food versus being waited on.

Food for thought you can always get good tenants, that will stay when they move in at a little below market value, it is a headache to move for the tenant, so you can adjust your rent each year to get back to market in small increments.
