The only 'gift' we leave is a refrigerator/freezer thermometer in the fridge so new tenants can get the fridge and freezer set right especially after we turn it to barely on when the unit is empty for a bit.

But with a portfolio, that one major downturn was a tiny blip in the grand scheme of things and barely registered on my radar in terms of performance and profitability.  

A and B are fine with paying the total rent for the last few months of the lease. 

Both groups of 4 young adult roommates for a 4 bedroom house.Both groups have comparable, good credit scores and clean background checks.Group A live in town and have various low paying jobs, but between the 4 of them have a >4:1 income/rent ratio.Group B are similar, but make considerably more, for a 7:1 ratio.The catch: they are moving here from a smaller town nearby, and only one is keeping their job. 

I barely watch tv, but I try to catch WWE.

But I bared witness to members at the case study meetings receive big checks back from the deals they've closed.

Oh, and the price was barely over the assessed value of the land only.

I will probably wait for the market to turn downward and pick up some scraps from the over extended and barely cash flowing investors in that area. 

Starting the project in late March of 2017, I got it barely in livable condition by late May.

What are my chances of getting something decent that barely does breakeven in that area or those deals are almost very rare to come by unless done huge rehab?
