The key is to understand the capital stack, who is in line in front of you and what are their terms.The people who are getting burned may have known there was debt in front of them, but did they know it was short term or variable - did they know all the details to make a good judgment on the investment.If a property had 20 year fixed debt at 70% would you take that over 3 year debt on a variable rate at 50%?

If you go to court, there's some cost to that and you'd be risking more escalation if they sought counsel as well.My approach for problem tenants is just appease them if the cost is minor and then not renew the lease, or even cash-for-keys if necessary.

The key is really focusing on the right neighborhoods, knowing your numbers, and being patient for the right opportunities.As for the fix-and-flip market, the lower entry costs can definitely make it a great place to start, but you've got to be mindful of renovation budgets and timelines.

And then make your own decision and try to avoid being unduly influenced by others, especially those who have a vested interest that is divergent to yours.2.
