I have heard this called the shiny object syndrome and occasionally suffer from it myself.

People fall victim (including myself) to the shiny penny syndrome and are always changing the next best thing.

For instance,  Possibly the tenant has some type of disability (down syndrome) where they are highly functional but wouldn't necesarily meet the criteria or possibly they would and the parents just want to help them live a little better.Not sure obviously about this particular tenant however, if the mother is willing to go on the lease and she meets the criteria then I would not necessarily turn them down for just having her pay the rent.

I am just getting started out so I don't want to get "shiny object syndrome" and jump to something new when I haven't quite mastered SFRs in my market yet.

your just suffering from burnt out landlord syndrome. it happens.. happened to me.. 

Sample all that BP has to offer but beware the shiny object syndrome.

Unfortunatley they do (the greater fool syndrom) and pay the price as seen in the last crash.

the absolute norm when dealing with contractorsmost won't bother to even get you a bid most of the rest will bid and agree to work, then no-showof those, half will show up late or half drunk and do shoddy work the ones that do really good work and are professional are holding out for larger jobsWhen you find a great contractor, just go ahead and kidnap him, Hold himin a basement until Stockholm syndrome sets in and he is happy to work on your projects.

Avoid the "shiny object syndrome" by narrowing down your niche as soon as possible.

To the OP Kevin Lefeuvre the situation you’re describing is what I refer to as the “hotel syndrome” They’re rating you as if your property was a hotel because that’s all they’ve ever known.
