In the West, most landscapes are primed to burn and are becoming increasingly risky in a warming climate.

They overpay, then complain/blame when they lose money on the deal.Most of them burn out after one or two deals, but then they get replaced by the next wave of newbs.I feel like the only thing that's going to break the cycle is if access to capital begins to dry up, but I see no sign of that coming anytime soon.  

When a tenants start to be problematic it is better to move them out and start out fresh I tried to hard to work with them and was to easy and gave to many chances and got burned with having to do a lot of repairs

They've got so many misleading and onerous add ons that you are going to get burned with lenders like them one way or another. btw: Did anybody else notice that firstkey lending is no longer doing these?

My best advice to you is a) DON'T LET YOU MONEY BURN A HOLE IN YOUR POCKET.

I understand guests burn through a lot, but there should be plenty of downtime while they sleep or are out of the house that would enable the reserve to build back up.Your well would need to pump 2,000 - 3,000 gallons a day (125 gallons per hour) to keep up.

How the pump motor burned up is still a mystery.Self managing remotely, yes. 

That way you’re not getting burned.

Which is by far the cheapest way to go, paying per transaction only vs gaining your own monumental burn-rate of operations as I have. 

I burn around 50 gal per month, which right is about $250.
