I have years of experience in the stock market and was drawn to the semi-passive income streams of real estate. 

Besides that, it was all diversifying into K-1 passive investments.As a semi-busy professional, most of us eventually get tired of being a landlord.

@Nick Robinson I actually am aware and also I'm not going to step in to anything without due diligence I asked a simple question just to gage different areas I drive a semi and do not have a million hours to be online thats why I asked on here and pay for the site

The highs are unbelievably satisfying, like when you can finally relax inside, knowing that the money-part of your life is taken care of.

Was I ever happy when I finally delegated all of the bill-paying, except for the part where I continued to sign the checks.It got “better”: of all the bad aspects of being a landlord, what drove me the most crazy was showing apartments, believe it or not.

If it was painted with a semi-gloss enamel, it would be better protected from water.

Where would your tenant place the litter boxes and how would he empty them (we had one couple who completely clogged a sewer line tossing litter down a sink...not a toilet).Finally chasing fleas and worrying about litters of kittens (or females in heat) are not fun things. 

So property taxes will be adjusted and the difference could be great is the current owner owned the property for a while.In the final analysis, the taxes will invariably go up.

(final aside: I'm also being mindful that we may not want to end up with this property in our portfolio, and thus be stuck in the same situation down the road when trying to sell it)THANKS IN ADVANCE!

I had been listening to BiggerPockets and studying all about Real estate for years, and finally was ready to get going, I even got my real estate license so I could practice as an agent as well.
