You want to make sure that asset is secure.

My inherited tenants ALL SMOKE and none had security deposits. 

Are you priced fairly and have a low security deposit?

If you love your job, make good money from your job, have very little time, and have cash want to park into a secure real estate asset, turnkey is the way to go.If you are opposite of that and want to dive into real estate investing operations, then fixed upper and BRRR.

Smart cameras like **Ring** or **Arlo** can be a good option, and you can hide the recording box in a locked area for added security.

We know we want to create an llc but is it difficult to secure a loan?

Our battery went out and our son had to crawl through a basement window but I doubt too many people could have done that, he was impressed by our increased security but didn't want to drive 2 hours back home so he found a way.  

What will be left of the security deposit if they feel they have no choice but to leave the property as is.

To prevent neighborhood use, you can:- Secure the dumpster with a lock.- Clearly label the dumpster with the property's address.- Inform your tenants about the proper use of the dumpster.Each tenant should be responsible for taking out their own trash on the designated collection days, but having a common dumpster is usually more convenient and cost-effective.Remember, clear communication with your tenants is key.

@Rod Merriweather Getting a LOC (line of credit) secured by real estate from a bank is going to be tough as the line of credit is viewed as a short-term liability while the property is a long-term asset.
