In most situations you will not be directly competing with the new product but, it allows you to rent your property at a much lower price point while providing you with a margin of safety. 

That's why I wanted to get your opinions - if you had the option of getting a 10 SFR package or 1 multi tenant property - which would you choose/prefer - or does it even really make a difference at the end of the day - because of the safety net of having multiple tenants.I welcome and appreciate any responses/opinions.Thanks BP

That is enough to pay investors with 200k safety money. 

As a matter of personal safety instruct your tenants to call 911 if at anytime they are in danger.I would contact the HOA and lodge a formal complaint on behalf the owner of the unit you manage and your tenant.

Those self-driving trucks will get here, only a matter of time/ safety standards.  

I guess to simplify the question, what strategy would you take in our current market to prioritize and accelerate increasing net worth?

Do you think theming could wait until August or should I prioritize it in an effort to get more cash flow this year?

So, personally I used leverage early on to grow my portfolio, then at some point once I figured I had enough properties where the cash flow could sustain me if they were paid off and my family situation changed the switch flipped of valuing safety over growth so I am now deleveraging to free and clear cash flow.

He's probably not going to have an opinion on cosmetic updates, but a complete inspection should help you prioritize repairs

In terms of cash-flow, what margin of safety are you guys looking for?
