I was accused once as a landlord of making my decision based on race and I just don’t need the hassle. 

Hi Christian,Another suggestion for learning how to inspect properties would be to hire an inspector to walk the property with you.I actually just heard an interesting tip from Tarl on this BiggerPockets video at 16:21:Investment Property Inspections & Pre-Purchase Decisions w/ J Scott & Tarl YarberTarl said when he was first starting out, he would hire a home inspector to inspect the property with him and follow them around the house and ask them questions.  

Anything call that has a decision or a follow up event for either party I would text it as a follow up and ask them to confirm. 

The caveat is that they must be active investors with an equal say in the property management decisions.

https://news.gov.bc.ca/release...This is still pretty fresh news with the new BC tenancy changes that came into effect on July 1 2021.I am new to being a landlord and this news does make things a little harder if you have a troublesome tenant.I am wondering what other investors who own in British Columbia think about the changes and will it affect your decisions to do long-term renters vs STR?

What is your technique to get an answer to the question when the decision maker, gatekeeper, and/or influencer refuses to answer question?

Just having one solid second opinion can sway most decisions.

When making that decision, keep in mind that nearly 60% of renters don't have children so a second bath may not be as important as it might.

No Offense taken.Just wanted to get insight from different perspectives so that I can make an informed decision.

You have to make the decision on your own.
