Just depends on if it's worth it for the deal and your stress level.Now if the deal has such high income, such as a short term rental, high private debt might be worth it...Again, down to your agreeable level of risk.

*# is it stressful at times.Have you had any similar situations? 

I can't stress enough how many accountants don't know how this works. 

If you can rely on savings or another source of income as your starting out, it will make the transition a lot simpler and reduce a good chunk of the stress.

I'm sure other people on here may stress the importance or value of having an experienced agent.. what it boils down to is how you want to allocate your time/energy.

Long distance vetting of the properties is not as stressful as I thought it would be.

I'm in a spot where that's not going to wipe me out, so I'm not stressed about it and making any rash decisions. 

I give the tenant a letter explaining I need to set up a date and time when to come over, what I will be looking at, and stress to be ready so I don't have to come back. 

I wanted to focus on my health without adding another stress in my life by finding a new tenant. 

I can't stress this enough.....your team will either make or break you.
