They can monitor the property, especially during and immediately after the eviction process.

I do it all the time to houses that have never had central HVAC and don't have any duct work.You can control the temp in the house from one location and even add a programmable Wi-Fi thermostat for remote monitoring and control.You won't be cutting holes in the side of the house and making it look like a hotel instead of a nice house.This will increase your resale value over the other options.Mini splits and window AC units look ghetto to me, so I spend the money to do it correctly.

If that's not possible, then we pay the utility and bill it back to the tenant or we increase their rent and include utility costs in that charge.At a bare minimum, you need to find a way to monitor utility use and put a stop to this before the bills get so big.

I totally understand and I'm not trying to convince them that they should, especially since certain areas are getting too many tourists and the infrastructure doesn't always follow. 

But you gotta be on the ground.Great on paper and some years you might get 15% returns and next year -15% returns.Plus, there is no true value in such areas as homes sell for $1,000 and others to unsuspecting out of state buyers for $60,000 where the provider makes a $20,000+ margin.Then it goes vacant, vandalized and back to a $1,000 houseLooks for areas with a more consistent sales value where homeowners also live and not just investor owned.B class in my eyes is:1) Close to infrastructure like schools, hospitals, shopping mall, larger employer, etc...2) Mix of homeowners and investor owned (leaning toward more homeowners).3) Well kept yards and no boarded up homes.

But being casually active in real estate, infrastructure projects, private credit, and equities is my long term future but a lot more time focused on my kids.
