Someone won't be happy with something, or might have a habit of slamming doors when they get home at 2am, or loud sex, etc.

Realtors are really going the way of travel agents.  

 I recently learned that there are a lot of people in my area that rent rooms to travelling nurses and other professionals on a month to month basis.

Travel to the property is grey area.I do recommend you deduct these expenses in 2017 even if small.

Focus turns into habit. 

For Maria to travel from Texas to Philly is already creating stress for her not to mention the mixed emotions that she must going through.Research the file again to make sure Debby and Ben have no heir's.

Perhaps you have to move for a career, travel, have a few years where you do not have time to manage the properties.  

I am also thinking I probably don't want to have to travel more than an hour or so from Orem to keep the house not a super pain to go work on.

Sure, it may be cheaper to travel by greyhound from LA to New York (if there were no time constraints).

I'm in the opposite situation right now in that I have some available capital but because of a heavy work travel schedule I have almost zero time to find a deal or manage any type of rehab project.I'll send you a private message.
