The contractors you have literally make or break the profitability of rentals. 

When I first started I literally printed a map of my town and wrote ARV's on it for the different models of homes that were located within each neighborhood I was targeting.

This is so important that is literally written into our loan docs that the loan will be considered in default if the borrower moves in.

From your description it was literally sitting in place, but that was it. 

That is a VERY disturbing personality flaw that we literally can’t afford to chance.

Ultimately he will be responsible for the PMs actions and advising someone to remain ignorant of the law and the practicality of landlording is bad advice.Not sure if you meant it quite so literally but, scarily enough, I think some people may actually think "oh cool I can do this with no real knowledge of any kind...there are people for that". 

(literally a 6'5 bulkhead right across in the middle of the unit)I'll have to look into adding a second unit, I'm not sure the current one is good enough to last, even with a diminished capacity.

I had a single mom abandon literally everything she and her family owned in an apartment in Cicero that I manage because all of it had been free from local charities, and she didn't want to move the stuff out.

I have purposely avoided buying within blocks of high schools as there are literally hundreds (in some cases 1000+) of teenagers walking through the neighborhood when it lets out.
