If you pay every bill on time, but only have $500 left over at the end of the month, and one of your renters moved out and you had to cover the rental property mortgage without the income from that property, could you?   

To me the buy and hold is usually more about long term gradual type of investing Flipping quickly with numerous properties has been a better way to increase my bankrollI am looking to combine the 2 next year.

I've had numerous discussions with the management at my company prior to my move, and should have no problem with receiving a 36 month attestation for remote work@Art Morgan appreciate the help!

If the current tenants have leases you have to honor them till they run out and can’t just raise the rent the day you buy it anyway which wouldn’t necessarily be advisable anyway because then you might end up with a vacant building snd no rent to pay your mortgage and bills.

@Bill Brandt I've read that gas cars catch fire more often than electric cars, but gas cars tend to catch fire when they're involved in accidents, while electric cars catch fire spontaneously when they're parked, so they are more likely to cause harm to the home.

How long can you pay the bills before you need rental income?

You know you are moving and if you don't have the reserves ready that tells me you don't have a financial plan for emergencies and they are only a breakdown or medical bill away from being late on rent.

Michael,So far its a bill but not a law and to be honest you would have to live in the house for (5) years without selling or refinancing the home? 

I'd be more inclined to tell a person who had numerous properties to underinsure.
