This was exhausting and informative to read. 

exhausted?)

Even if the tenant owes the money, dealing with these kinds of tenants can be exhausting, which is likely why the tenant is acting this way: she wants to wear you down.

I would have really liked to invest where i live, but Minnesota really does not have the price point for neighborhoods that will help scale Brrr.As I am just starting out i would like to start in zipcodes which are not already exhausted with Brrr investors. 

Yes, it will be exhausting, you will learn a lot, Youtube will be your best friend but don't give up.

After moving out, we re-stained the front porch posts with a darker stain (photo is pre-stain), replaced the front door, did touch-up painting on walls and trim, installed new keyed-alike locks on front/back door, and installed a vented bathroom exhaust fan that wasn't there prior. 

The process was frustrating and exhausting, so mid-June I decided to do Airbnb because my units were vacant.

I've spoken to the rep in Ashcroft and looks like they've seem to exhausted a lot of options before approaching us.

If this is only one of a small amount of properties, invest in a dryer exhaust vent cleaning system off of Amazon.

Also they remove the need for a chimney and individual water heaters since the exhaust is essentially moisture. our HVAC does most of their work in the city if you want contact info- He's installed 3 for us just this last year lol In basic terms It would involve:-Permits / approval-Additional Meters X 3 (all thru UGI, they coordinate with contractor)-3 additional units to accommodate each apartment.
