I wonder what will change in the next decade once self driving verticals are more prevalent and a glut of supply come on market with parking structures re-purposed. 

@Luiggi Perdomo, I hope that you don't mind my curiosity here--  it's fascinating what we all find in different areas, despite the prevalence of the IRC.  

-The property was built back in the days, where lead paint is prevalent, and the lead paint disclosure says 'unknown'.

If they don't fear Uncle Sam, do you think they will fear you?

A fear I've had is knowing that they like to raise rents a lot I'd get a TON of turnover.  

If everyone thinks it's a good thing to get into real estate, be fearful. 

I ended up framing in a small portion of the garage just to help address that fear (pipes freezing).

Definitely one of my major fears as an STR/VR owner and operator!  

Just a thought, maybe I'm wrong and more and more demand will be prevalent as more people retire, but when I look at the macro trends I get more concerned about projects luxury good sales (such as nice rentals on the water in Cape Coral) and more and more bullish on cost-efficient healthcare services (think adult day care centers that provide basic care but lower the cost on the healthcare system by keeping people out of expensive nursing facilities and into cheaper care).

I'm in a pretty good position now, have reestablished myself, great credit, you name it--but moving past the fear of losing it all again has been paralyzing at times.
