I just keep hearing over and over again to just take action and course correct from there. 

@Josue Ramos,Huntsville could be worth checking out since you’re leaning towards appreciation over cash flow.

At Rent to Retirement, we've been helping investors navigate these opportunities for over a decade, and we're here to guide you too.

Big expense up front, additional expenses over the life of the lock, they can be too complicated for renters to figure out, and they don't solve all the problems a landlord may face.

You're going to torpedo a tenant relationship over this?

-Build a strong network in Detroit of real humans over a period of months, buy a better deal, hold it for 10+ years, weather early storms:  better chance for success.Even on that latter deal though, are you going to cash flow in month 1 or year 1 or even year 5? 

While my local marketplace is the Greater Hartford region, I serve clients all over CT. 

my property appreciation varies from a low of $2700/month to over $10k/month.   

I ask to take a walk through and document the current condition as my agreement states they can not damage the property during this process. and of course don't give them anything until you have walked through verified they are out and have voluntarily handed over keys. 

And the laws and regulations here are very different, not very strict like the states.Prices are high and rents are low over here.
