Its like hitting yourself in the head with a hammer.

Doesn't deter investors.Interest rates hit highs of 18%-19% in the late 70's and early 80's.

@Cecilia Arnulphi I normally suggest to hit up the state specific forum but Rhode Island is such a small state there might not be that much activity there.

There are definitely benefits to going larger with regard to operational efficiencies.

With this last storm to hit Massachusetts, my owner occupied 2 family rental took some damage.  

But base hits all day long add up to a lot more than a home run here and there . 

If you can only cover the down payment I suggest waiting till you can cover all the costs, you don't want to be in a situation when a major repair hits and you have no money 

@James Chun II hit the @ sign, then start typing someone's name, a box should pop up after 3 letters or so with suggestions of who you are trying to tag, same as most sm platforms...

I've hit that point in my life where I've realized my 9-5 job isn't going to provide me financial freedom, or a decent retirement. 

No check on the front door he pinned the 3 day notice.. pretty efficient really.One issue you have in some areas of the country.. is that a good portion of your rental stable has no checking accounts and cant get them... so they have to go get money orders.. or pay in cash.. so the on line stuff does not work .. plus they are not super computer folks either I mean I cant even pay on line.. never could figure out how to do that.so if your going to PM or landlord to that renter you have to accept personal visit or in the mail.
