Funny story, I was majoring in public health and wanted to work for the CDC as an epidemiologist.

There are many other cities to invest in where there is less risk from the local economics and health of the housing market, let alone the decreased (or non-existent) fire, medical, and police response.

What if without permits, the smoke/CO detectors were not installed properly or in the proper locations, or electrical or plumbing work were shoddy causing a fire or plumbing leak and mold and tenant health issues, etc.

And I'll tread lightly around the second question, but is your father in good health?

I'm a CPA based in ottawa and what I typically tell my clients is the following to illustrate what is an expense vs capital in natur.

Up to 50% of units in a condominium building may be allowed a B&B, subject to AOAO (Association of Apartment Owners) approval.All other rentals can currently be booked for 30 days or more, however, the state wants potentially change it to require a 180-day minimum (6 months) with exceptions for full-time students, temp health care workers, remote workers, homeowners in transition, and more.Applications for registration have been put on hold until the DPP reconsiders the registration process due to comments provided by the public at the April 6, 2021 hearing.Transient Vacation Units (TVUs):Must have a permit (called a NUC) to operate outside of resort areasNUC's are non-transferable, can't be transferred to another property/personBill 41 wants to push a $5,000 application fee with a $2,500 annual renewal fee to apply for a NUC (Non-Conforming Use) permit (up from the current $1,000 registration and $2,000 annual renewal fee).

The grind was terrible and definitely impacted my health/relationships for a little over a year, but in the end it was worth it because I was able to move solely to real estate agent/investing work and I now have a lot of flexibility in my life.

Also, why strategies can I use to attract health care related tenants? 

As an extreme example to illustrate my point, for example, if you can get a 1% loan, clearly, you want to put the least down possible or zero down. 

I was extremely fortunate to hang on and find my PM when I was considering selling everything due to my health reasons.
