@Nathan Marks, The pain points will speak to you - Cap ex is looming. 

Lots of the properties being sold aren't panic selling but a rational calculation to say " ok this is a pain and inventory is low, interest rates are low...why shouldn't I sell?". 

This is my first out-of-state investment, and I am really feeling the pain now. 

As much as it pains me to admit it, I am ok with providing relief to those that need it, especially with the current situation.

@Leonel Lerena the seasoning requirements are a pain for sure when you're trying to get out of a high interest rate hard money loan, and for the most part, 6 months is the shortest amount of time you'll find.

I feel your pain.

That would be the way to separate from your sisters with little pain at this point. 

Thanks for the explanation, @Brian Burke - that was exactly what I was looking for.Indeed, my example was unrealistic in several aspects but I did so to try and reduce the number of variables in play and to ensure that my primary question wasn't hidden in the noise.Your explanation of the psychology behind the difference makes a lot of sense.

He has helped me plan for future in addition to minimizing pain in the present.Another factor to consider is that it is always more emotional to rent out a home you have lived in yourself.   

For some, its an awesome new side-hustle, but for others, it could be a huge pain in the butt if you're already super busy!
