For those of you who have purchased 'challenged' properties before, you know having anything 'left' is a miracle.

Thank you for taking the time to read and respond to my inquiry.Salient points:Very unique property was purchased by an investor for $110,000 cash in January 2012.

My schtick was Drive Control Automation...loved it but the politics etc drove me crazy.I called it quits @ 49 only because we had accumulated a good stable of quality properties.I love RE & the constant challenges.

This investing thingy is challenging and fun too!

I would imagine that was the case and it is feasible because of his extra expenses.For instance he can add bedrooms in areas that would commonly be utilized differently in a SFR therefore he is adding rentable area.I own a house that is rented by the room but my biggest challenge is to keep it full.

RE is a unique business, it also takes a certain personality to be a landlord/owner and many assume they can or are willing to hold properties but find later it's not for them.

I think you're right to "challenge" your holdings.

The largest challenge will be building a solid buyers list in a new location for you.Good luck!

My experience with my parents estate is that a home can be a challenge to relationships.

If so, what kinds of challenges have you faced there?
