Throw rugs work also but defeats the til aspect other than its their rugs,,,and subject to there cleaning.I have heard people love it,,but they may have been homeowners.

It was because I took what all I had gathered from all aspects of what I was learning and I applied it.

I am working with a few investors who fix and flip, so are rehab costs something I work with them on, maybe walk through with them, until I learn the ropes of this aspect?

But I have not researched that aspect.

Of course, you could argue that if an investor learned the financials and operational aspects of landlording, that investor would do better in any investment (SFR or multi) compared to one who did not.I believe that a solid foundation of knowledge regarding the finaccial and operational aspects of landlording is essential and once learned, the best opportunity is to start with an apartment building rather than SFR's if the goal/plan is long term hold for income stream.

My issue is that exaggerating the perception of difficulty with certain aspects is not necessary.

I would enjoy the aspects of real estate.
