I just wonder how many of you worry that you have all your eggs in one basket. I have 8 doors in Portland Oregon right now and am afraid to keep investing in this same city. This city has a river running through the...

I am currently closing on a SFH that will be a rental in NC. The area is kind of rural, and I don't expect to see a huge number of applicants. Say somebody applies, they have good credit, no criminal history, job, etc...
