You can look at the relocation as an investment in the property since it will be an issue if you ever want to sell.Years ago we only provided w/d hookups, but these days we include w/d in all units, raise the rents accordingly ($25-50 per unit) and enjoy some extra cash flow.

They hold up better over time and if there is any structural issues, it is easily seen within the brick.

If not, going with a single-family home or a duplex could be a good option.For larger investments, you'll need at least six months of reserves to cover any unexpected issues.

Your answers depend on what state you're in and its laws on property transfer.

@Faisal ZamanI would suggest accepting rent payments only by money order or cashier check to avoid issues with returned payments.

So it was never an issue before; I just went forward once I got an approval.  

And the Milwaukee major wants to grow its population by more than 60% by changing the zoning law (project Growing MKE) opening up the sea of low density single family zoning to townhomes, mixed use, MF and ADU's. 

You also are required to put 25%-30% down and larger reserves are required and the building itself can cause issues if it has vacancy ratios.

And it's worked for generations and the wealthy for a very long time because mutual insurance companies understand the human lifecycle quite well (law of large numbers), they're well regulated, make safe and sound investments and in several cases have paid out dividends consecutively for over 150 years (Mass Mutual, Lafayette Life, etc).
