Low margins, low returns, Also depends on your teams and property strengths.  

As a business owner myself, I would not want to claim association with, let alone endorse a low-quality company with deceptive business practices, like WealthAbility – it just reflects poorly.

The insurance company denied the claim citing negligence - ie. temp of the house inside and outside was the same, no form of general maintenance was done to secure the home for winter.Now we have a bill of close to $100k and they are refusing to foot the bill.

I'd weight the options of high EMD with an inspection contingency so my money isn't at risk, and low(er) EMD with no contingency and I could lose my money.

Not too low either, you don't want to go with someone who is just focused on price as this is a quality of a not-so-great accountant.

Some believe that is the biggest problem with low numbers and hosts feeling like STR is a dying strategy, they never did understand the market they were buying into.

The situation is a toilet, the tenant complained that the seat is low, which I suggested to her a seat riser.

I spoke with him and he was very respectful and explained to me how he is trying to find a job and he has applied to McD's and dollar general and a few other low paying jobs. 

For my first-time investors, I recommend going the townhouse route because they are very rentable, less per door than SFH, appreciate well and much of the exterior maintenance is handled by the HOA.Happy to chat and answer any questions you have about the area.

In Denver, for instance, there are suburbs where you can find 4br SFHs in the low-to-mid $500,000s, but you can occasionally find a 5br for that price.
