It all depends on the tenant base as mentioned.The bad credit ones will wait and see if you pay the money to file eviction and will not care about the notice you give them.Make sure in your lease you have language that states the security deposit CANNOT be applied to last months or any months rent.If you do not have that in there you can be in trouble.Sometimes if the tenant is a good tenant that falls behind the landlord will let them apply the security deposit to catch up that one month if it makes sense.You need to get an written agreement in writing though signed by the tenant authorizing this.With college degree highly educated tenants the job is more stable,they have reserves for bumps in the road,etc.This is not always the case but works in your favor with percentages.With lower income the education tends to be less,they work 2 jobs to pay the rent,the rely on multiple incomes in the house hold to pay the rent,charity assistance,government programs,etc.The cash is more but you are almost a social worker and the drama that comes with it can be too much to deal with at times.

However, my alternative would be to settle for a degree in supply chain management.

That's what I thought, just estimate it and state that the population is estimated to be XX,XXX. like 18,632....I think an exact number as an estimate would look better, but they may ask where you got it, so be able to explain it to some degree.

In regards to a little of this hyper confusion, HUD responded with clarification to the rule: "An individual required to be licensed under the SAFE Act is an individual who is engaged in the ‘‘business of a loan originator’’; that is, an individual who acts as a residential mortgage loan originator with respect to financing that is provided in a commercial context and with some degree of habitualness or repetition."

American Military University completely covered by military TA and provides an associate degree in Real-Estate.

Bought 3 more rentals and will be rehabbing them in this 100+ degree weather.

After I complete my master's degree (end of this year), I think I could handle about 10 rentals time wise.

To a degree.
