After all was done the neighbors apologized for over reacting and I was now out $2400. eye roll.My personal thoughts are the danger is over blown.

I recommend styling your tables, adding a theme and just making the property have more personality.

It would be a challenge to get the 1/4" per foot fall necessary to tie into the existing main line on the property, although not completely ruled out.  

Speaking from personal experience!

I charge 10% of the monthly rent, and if I have to go to the property in person for a routine inspection or to oversee a large job or high ticket estimate, Its $25/hr + $0.50/mile driven.Hiring a professional manager is ideal if you dont have the patience, mental space, or availability to receieve random spur of the moment repair and emergency requests.

But you are not liable personally for. 

Diversity of portfolio is good for maintaining capital but if you're having success in one area I would continue with it until you have enough capital that needs to be diversified and then seek out professionals in those spaces who can benefit from helping secure your capital in other asset classes, personal opinion!

The answer to that question depends on your personal wants, needs, and goals for you and your loved ones.

I personally would be their agent, but I am very hesitant to partner with people unless I have fully vetted them.I would be their agent on a few deals, and then you would decide if you want to partner with them.

That's how I invest personally.
