This one has B- finishes and will be renovated to A finished when she leaves she is basically going to season the house so I can refi after I hit the two year mark as a land lord.

Hi everyone,I am very new to land lording and have a question on how you would deal with the following problem tenants I recently inherited when I purchased a triplex. 

I, and I am sure that many other investors who follow the forums here would not appreciate being called a slum lord just because their properties don't have separate meters or they include utilities into the rent for convenience...

The term "slum lord" originated from somewhere so we do get the calls.  

The podcast on ethical land lording and how Mr.

You are what I call an accidental land lord.  

There may be other loop holes or short cuts available to you that are not available to more traditional land lords like us.  

My question would be, weight can you put on it and could it trigger any legal issues for a land lord?

Ah different asset class than the majority of posters on BP.its typical in our portlandia market for b to a apartment complex's that management fee is 4% .. and you pay for your on site manager to handle the day to day etc.. the PM company manages the on site manager and makes sure they are not abusing the owner.And your absolutely correct turn over kills cash flow absolutely kills it ... when folks use a 5% of gross for vacancy many times that numbers of off buy 100 to 400 % of actual .a long with maintenance.. if your having turn over every 12 to 18 months ( very common in many areas) your cash flow is probably neutral if you actually figured it out.for me personally and I am retiring from land lording  the last of my 11 or so A class SFR's I never raise the rent and when they move out I sell it. when I was running them my rents were always below market... this allowed me to only pay a RE broker a placement fee and my secretary could do the day to day.  

I recommend backing off from the discrimination suggestions while you are actively land lording.  .
