Say goodbye to worries about leaks or weather damage – this top-quality roof has got you covered, quite literally!

@Ryan Williams Good food for thought on the appreciation bit in the Denver area, more recession resistant as well.

New Orleans has the obvious weather problems. 

Hopefully you can reposition it when the weather warms and buyers are looking for a new house. 

We all know that break downs don't happen in ideal weather conditions.

It will outlast copper in acid water systems by decades, and it has more freeze resistance than anything, plus if worse comes to worst, the copper thieves have no reason to destroy the house while the tenants are on a 2 week vacay.

Not to mention better weather than other major markets priced higher than we are, w/ more potential.

I would not recommend baseboard resistance as a sole source of heat as minisplits are cheaper to run although baseboard is cheaper to install.

If the doorknob falls off and the tenant can't latch the door to keep the weather out, you have to replace it.

You will have to identify a property that doesn't have structural issues at that price, manage the lowest of the lows when it comes to construction crews that would be willing to work in that neighborhood at a price that will make sense to you, weather countless break ins and thefts when your improvements are completed prior to tenancy, and then deal with the ongoing turnover issues related to the drama that comes with renting to really unqualified tenants.
