So if the shutdown continues for many months, I'm not sure how/if there's any way to collect for previously missed payments.PM me if you want a copy of the letter I received.

The mortgage notes itself is a form of protection as there is little to collect if no equity. 

On top of that collect an application fee from the tenant to cover your background check cost.Collect a non refundable deposit prior to move in.

The $15K in costs to relocate your tenant may be covered by your insurance policy and you should still be collecting rent during this time.

Use Zillow and rentometer.com to get data and analyze a few from your home to see what type if returns there are.If these meet your investment criteria then start looking in person. 

I was looking at data specific to 04086 but it may have been a broader scope.

Lots of great data and perspective on there. 

I have nothing invested at all and if the loan goes to term I will collect $155,136.)

Account Closed I have 2 partners with me and the business and I was trying to avoid giving up equity at the moment as most of the people interested really just wanted to collect a little extra spending money on their investments.

I also collect all my rent through there, do my tenant screening and it's all free.
