During the great recession of a decade ago, there were places where rents literally went to zero for some people as there simply were not tenants available at any price to fill their vacancies......and then there were other locations where rents went up huge amounts, because homeowners got foreclosed on and created way more tenants than normal.Agreed Russ  there were clusters in the GFC   PhX   ATL   FLA   Central CA  Vegas were particularly hit hard and many landlords lost their properties including apartments that were max leveraged.. what I don't agree with is there is going to be a mass foreclosures like 08 and all of a sudden past homeowners are flocking to rentals.reason I think this is literally million if not millions of homes have been sold in the last 10 years with those buying 5 to 10 years ago not only getting a very good price but they got incredible rates.. so their payments are FAR less than rent.. 

I also spend very little from this money as i am rolling it up to buy another property, we celebrate some, had a great dinner tonight, my annual minutes meetings are done in a tropical environment (mexico).

Our built environment, our homes, parks, schools, institutions and political bodies seem to totally ignore this goal.

Your responsibility is to provide a safe and habitable environment to your Tenant and to provide a clear path of communication such as how far out they need to give you notice of renewal or non-renewal which you have.

This site is an incredible resource!

I seem to be having an incredibly hard time finding people to work in rehab and maintenance in San Antonio, TX.

We went through many ideas of how to structure the deal over several weeks, and in the end settled on a seller financed deal with an incredible 30 year note at 4% with just $10k down.

However, it sounds like you are not the target environment and they’re wasting their time lol.

For example, you mention Manchester as "not great" yet I have done incredibly well there and could show you a ton of economic factors that show why Manchester works.
