I see too many times where investors treat bad properties like many women treat bad men. 

To me this is simple customer service, and how I would want to be treated if I were a renter.Just my 2 cents.Ice maker parts.

It's the same for younger people as well, you don't get as much respect, this one lady treated me like I wasn't even ganna get pre approved for a triplex, looked at me all weird,  and 2 weeks later I bought the house! 

For my first investment property, I prioritized minimizing risk and treating it as a valuable learning experience.

The goal is to get great tenants who treat the place like their own for as long as possible.

People will treat you exactly how you let them.

She left the house with fleas, swore dog was on treatment (any pest guy will tell you the best flea medicine is a treated dog), and said damaged carpet was there when she got there even though it was brand new.

A benefit of this method is that by grouping the activities, it allows you as the taxpayer to treat the activities as one when applying the 7 tests to determine material participation.

And, this should go without saying, but always defer to Fair Housing guidance, ensure you're treating everyone equally, and keep diligent records of all applications for 5 years.

If you take in Seniors, then they will graduate within a year and turnover will be high.If you rent by the room (just like a quad in on-campus housing), then you will generate more revenue than if you treat it like a SFR.
