In the beginning you will need to just persevere through it all and let your actions speak loudly for you and the jibber jabber will all be put to rest.

We have only one rental [it is my son who is hoping to retire by 35 from investments] and we brought our tenants a card with a message of extreme appreciation and $100 cash on Sunday. 

Hi Everyone,The issue I'm having is that the state I currently live in has extremely high prices.

Extremely hard to do after.

We have plans in the future to allow her to become a stay at home mom, but in the mean time having her working and helping me pay off our home that we househack is extremely beneficial!

In my experience, it is extremely difficult to remove someone off of a conventional loan. 

Your price range is on the extreme low end and I wouldn't be surprised if you only find 1/1 units at that range.

When I arrived the property it was extremely overgrown and you couldn’t get to the back of the house.

When market is extremely high it is ok to be creative in order to make good return on investment.

You'll have to come to grips with the fact that NO ONE will do everything the way you do it.Somethings a PMC will actually do better, but they won't do the extreme hand-holding of tenants that many DIY landlords do.
