I own several duplexes there and they’ve been solid investments with no issues finding renters.

I remember years ago our attorney reviewing one such issue for a client that was coming over to us. 

I haven't had any issues dealing with AirBNB...yet.

Next issue, I know we had BP members who taught real estate at state approved schools, that would have qualified, but what  tossed them out of the ring was they also taught beyond their qualifications, such as in finance and got it wrong!

It doesn't happen often at all.We run such a tight ship, we rarely have issues that need attention.

of course the sale of hurricane damaged houses also confuses the issue (my house had no such damage but is only about 4 blocks from houses that did). 

The rehab expenses don't line up but they are not stealing, I would suggest having a zoom call or sit down with their PM or account manager to see what is not lining up and where you see issues compared to what they have on their sheet. 

You need an income that meets three requirements:Rents increase faster than inflation to offset constantly rising prices.It must be reliable; it continues even during economic downturns.It must last throughout your lifetime.These are all long-term requirements, so the current interest rates are not the major issue.

Using an unexpected repair as justification for not caring about cashflow as much as appreciation doesn't really address the issue, especially when appreciation also operates on the idea that the property's condition doesn't decline relative to comps.From what I understand about REI and cashflow, cashflow should cover not only PITI, but maintenance, repair reserves, prop management, etc.

I see two separate issues.1.
