I wonder how often someone gets a destroyed unit when the tenant leaves and there is not security deposit to cover anything.

Also the pandemic initially affected the supply/demand which also pushed prices, but again that wont last forever either, maybe another year.Let me know if I'm missing something here.

Purchase price: $25,000 Cash invested: $10,000 Contributors: Dawn Curry For Sale By Owner that was sitting for a while because tenants destroyed it.

if they simply wont budge, you can offer them.another price for "as is" for substantially less to cover the risk.

The last year in my view has destroyed what living in the city was all about.

There are many different ways to invest, some hold for appreciation with little cash flow, and some hold knowing there wont be much appreciation, but heavy cash flow.

We'll have to see about that though.https://www.portland.gov/sites...The sad thing is that the listing of assets and their value shows which items tenants can destroy without any, or very little, repercussion.

But if you are ok with the extra information and that wont hold you back from starting, then go ahead!

Find something that has little chance of destroying your life and you'll survive to buy another property. 

Not the first time. wont be the last. whatever.
