If it doesn't, i'd cut it loose.    

I don't think there is any clear cut way to tell a good tenant from bad except for time.

So holding costs, insurance, grass cutting, taxes on a property for 50 days.   

I feel like that is pretty expensive but the mortgage people tell me that I don't qualify for a traditional loan (due to lack of credit history) and that I can likely refinance in a few years and cut a couple hundred dollars off the mortgage. 

It will let you know if you are cut out for it.Grab a local buyers' agent.  

All my people carry licensing so we can all collaborate on leasing, managing and sales as a team as the workflow demands.I realize there are a lot of PM's that cut corners.

Doing this really cuts right to the chase and getting your deals closed.

If they cut it in half for landlords under 50, they probably would gather more of a user base.

There are speculative pockets that could move back some, but great locations have plenty of fuel to continue upward.  

I was cut a check for the tenants deposit.
