I don’t think that we worry about anything much different, except what you already said...making sure you have the funds to carry you through the slow months...

If I were you I would take a deep dive on the financials of each property -separately.

Real estate investing is used best a get get rich slow program and is very much a relationship business.

Shortly after that my goal is to purchase a duplex in order to begin a slow start in rental investments.

We are seeing more planned developments and continued growth in pockets of Atlanta that have experienced a slow-down or stall regarding retail SFRs.

(Imagine your tax bill if every property had a deep dive appraisal every year???)

Also the amount of people entering the GTA isn't slowing so that may keep prices steady.

@Vicki Lau even if a tenant leaves a unit very clean I often still pay about $250 or more to have it professionally cleaned (deep cleaning such as getting the oven and fridge back to like-new condition, carpet steam cleaning, drain clearing, bathroom sanitization, etc).

Having convos with him probably slowed me down as well.

I've read a lot about the slowing of home sales and transactions so far in 2019.
