I never had to evict anyone in more than a decade (and we operate a good size portfolio in Milwaukee).

This is the first time this has happened to me in all these decades of doing these deals. 

Come to me with proof of your desire and purchasing power and you have both ears.Also, as others stated, many agents suck or are just too new so you need to find the very best ones.Best meaning they have been in the biz for a good decade or more and also work with investor clients.

Rents for single-family homes have largely kept pace, preserving much of the healthy margins to which yield-starved investors have grown accustomed since diving into the rental business a decade ago.

A 65 year old that is retiring and needs "quality, reliable" rental income, is going to have a different decision process, than a 25 year old with a good paying job, that doesn't need the cashflow for decades, and can take a more leveraged position for future benefit. ...you get my drift.Also, you may have the opportunity to get a HUGE tax benefit RIGHT NOW, with the $250k/$500k home sale EXCLUSION!

Daily Mail: Long Island man who went more than two decades without paying a penny on his mortgage is finally out.https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10198559/Long-Island-man-went-two-decades-without-paying-penny-mortgage-finally-out.html

Long Island man who hasn’t paid his mortgage in 20 years dodges eviction againA Long Island man who hasn’t paid his mortgage in more than 20 years got another free pass from the courts this week after hiring a new lawyer.Guramrit Hanspal, 52, hasn’t coughed up a dime to live in his East Meadow home since making a single mortgage payment in 1998, but ducked eviction for decades by filing lawsuits and bankruptcies, records show."

I have wholesaled somewhere around 15 times or so, albeit almost a decade ago since my last one, and at no time did I ever violate the brokering laws in CA.

Elder abuse In Florida, I think, is a 3 year jail term for that kind of offense.In Washington in particular, where I bought properties in preforeclosure for decades, the law was changed so that you can't even solicit preforeclosures without violating the law.

., and I can confidently say I am committed to doing this.Growing up, my parents operated about 20 student apts and half a dozen townhomes, so I'm not unfamiliar with multifamily and I at least have people very close to me that know the ins and outs of running commercial, granted they've been out of the game for a decade.
