Hello Daniel, My background was in the film industry in production and it definitely came in handy while renting out a furnished house.

I imagine that the length increases by some amount, but I doubt it would be a full year since many tenants feel fine riding out a month-to-month lease until they decide to leave.Do the downsides (forfeit of owner ability to increase rents after the year and potential to get stuck with a trouble tenant constantly calling for minor repairs) compensate for whatever this additional length of stay is?

@David Thompson Great insight, thanks for a different perspective, I like the mold of diversifying how you invest, it is similar to how I am looking at a new business adventure I started, While the returns of selling the product myself are greater, by letting someone else take a share of the pie and having them do the leg work my returns are INFINITE.

I just found a good local credit union that has some great portfolio products.

Additionally, you'll also need to confirm the rents.  

There is work that needs done on the property, so we'd have to be creative with where we pulled additional money from.

I know that's the case around here, additionally rental demand for SFDs are higher than multis which can result in better tenant pools.

Stairs are additional.

Even odder is that with the recent pandemic the product on the market is being sold at inflated prices.

Also, had a wholesaler tell me when I first started that he would buy a home and sell it to just make an additional 5-7k on it.
