I just found this site, and would like to know how things panned out for you.

Good News: The United States is in the economic toilet right now, with no signs that things are going to get better anytime soon.You might be asking me why that is good news?????

Yes, I'd hate to do this to another investor, but at the end of the day, I don't want to see my first investment go down the toilet.

If anything gets ripped out of the wall, like toilet paper holders, run a brace between 2 studs and attach it to a brace if there isn't a handy stud to attach it.

Was it about hating stocking soap and toilet paper between every guest? 

Enjoying their golden years they usually travel and see friends and family and want passive income that is headache free and avoiding worrying about (active tenants, toilets, and termites).

If someone's heat or toilet is broken I would rather that not be my problem. 

The large companies might have a big client in the area but once they lose that business or the client sells the management of the smaller properties with lease up efforts tends to go in the toilet. 

no, i think its the opposite... you get objective data by putting in the numbers on the spot (roof cost, tile, new toilet, kitchen), punch those in, hit a button and get the number right there.often times i can't remember if house x needed new pipes or not after i get home.
