If interest rates are affecting your numbers that much, then maybe you can stress test your deals more.

A night nurse might seem like a great idea since they'll be at work a lot and less stress on the property but if they sleep during the day and you have a conference call you need to talk on or have a pet, this can cause rifts in the relationship and viability of the tenant quickly.Otherwise, just make sure to do full background/credit checks and leases on the front-end, be a friend/roommate whenever you can, and a landlord ONLY WHEN NEEDED.

Obviously they aren't motivated, nor the type of person you want the stress of dealing with.

I was just at a closing this week and I could see the stress on the Escrow officer. 

I know we all want clients and marketing is really stressed in many RE books.

Fantastic deal,I don't think I could live through the stress of having that much invested but the return was awesome.Maybe someday it won't scare me so much.Great Job!

My other property is being managed by a property manager and, I must say, having a property manager definitely does remove lots of the stress and headache of having to deal with tenant problems. 

Takes a little of the stress off.

Is it worth your time and stress to deal with it or would you rather take the cash and sell it?

It's a great plan when transitioning out of the military and provides a much needed cushion to benefit the family during that sometimes stressful time.I would also recommend that you continue your saving mindset once you transition to the civilian life.
