I believe I can probably get 1,550 without utilities. which would be maybe 100$/month in profit which I would save until I have a emergency fund. 

Drug dealer seems to be the only option currently available since recreational marijuana in not legal and even medical is severely regulated 

Maint is a profit center for them by:1) Charging $75/hour for a $20/hour guy to do stuff AND2) Sometimes arranging kickbacks with some contractors AND3) Overpricing "emergency" repairsI'd say make sure they understand, unless a dire emergency, that if it's over a number ($500?)

I have some house hacking clients east of Denver (out by the Anschutz medical campus) who were doing rent-by-the-room.

The reason why is you many need to fix the property and have proper reserves to take care of any emergency item that come up.  

For insurance, we joined a sort of Christian co-op that doesn't pay for preventative care, but did pay for emergencies, like when my son broke his hand. 

With your medical background look for businesses along that line. 

I like single tenant, absolute NNN medical office deals.

Anyone out in BP Land have experience or can recommend resources in the Medical RE space?

Over time if you do things the right way the key members who provide value will emerge.
