It can be very profitable and rewarding, but factor your time into the costs.

Time to convince old clients to be investors.Perfect storm brewing that will reward investors and punish non-owners. 

Far more money will come into these areas from out of state investors as it has been for recent years then the north side.Our company has taken entire blocks and turned them around but sometimes the reward isn't worth the risk unless you have the city and community leaders behind you and alot of people don't have those resources.  

I don't recommend this alternate method, simply because it is too complicated to set up, and too little reward for the risk. 

Cap rates and IRR are a function of risk/reward, so I see cap rates climbing into double digits as investors will need to reap a high reward to deal with the legal BS here. 

If Tenant is out on or before the agreed date, Landord shall reward Tenant with one free month of rent, payable within five days of vacating."

@J DADDI hate to recommend it because I know it’s not fair and people like that shouldn’t be rewarded for their bad behavior..

You need to be rewarded for the extra risk.By definition you are dealing with someone who can’t/won’t buy their own property to do this with.

ABNB does recommend it so I was wondering if their algorithm “rewards” the option.
