The biggest mistakes I have made were when I assumed I was strong enough to overcome the psychological effects of dealing with debt. 

The biggest problem with low-income rentals isn't necessarily the tenants, it's the ineptitude of the landlord in screening and effectively communicating with the tenant base. 

The tool I recommend is called Beyond Pricing.Instant BookInstant book is a tool on Airbnb that allows you to skip the process of approving a guest and will automatically allow them to book your listing.

Also, under tools, then file cabinet, you can find some wholesaling contract so you can get an idea of how it's structured.

Costly meaning the up keeping, tools, cars, suits needed.

I agreed to effectively a short sale: mortgagee sold property and I received all proceeds, which did not quite cover the principal amount and thus didn't cover any of the accumulated interest.

@Derek Askew Great question — you may want to look into a service that offers a nice portfolio of tools to make managing your own rental super easy (that includes tools to list your unit, screen tenants, create digital leases, collect rent online and manage maintenance requests).

I have effectively raised the NOI by $8,000 annually.

That might be ok for a bank, who will only lend 80% of the contract price, who will require insurance be purchased in the event a buyer does not have the 20% down (PMI), but how does that in any way serve a buyer who is trying to use the appraisal as a negotiation tool?
