Being at a slight operating profit or break even is completely fine with my though as I'm not looking at this as some get rich scheme, it's a long-term investment.Based on this, I'm looking now more into getting a more utilitarian STR targeted at business travelers where the goal is similar to my LTR's, getting long-term appreciation and mortgage pay down and making enough cash flow simply to cover repairs. 

I would have already taken action when they stopped paying and simply done an eviction for nonpayment of rent which should be cookie-cutter to do.

God bless you all, and lets remain faithful that we will land where we need to and we will be successful!

Its a little more expensive but when our tenants put in maintenance requests we can simply forward those to our contractors.

This was not simply a slight difference.
