My point was partly non financial, it's really nice to have a tenant that rarely needs anything, particularly when you self manage and do most repairs yourself.

Also a method they employed that particularly stood out to me was getting around maintenance expenses which in essence worked like this:You tell the seller that you'd agreed to cover their monthly mortgage & you don't want to bother them with trivial matters in regards to maintenance so...In any given month you'd make sure that any maintenance costs below say $350 were taken care of & anything more than that in any given month they'd take care of.
