Tweetthat blows!! i hated being a landlord...to much stress for me!! i'm glad i dumped my shyt when the dumping was good in 04!!
TweetWhen my pop was alive, he and I made some investments in properties in his local neighborhood in Va. It's a real nice, gated, resort community. Amenities include skiing, snow tubing, golf courses, horseback riding, indoor/outdoor pools, indoor water park, restaurants, etc. However for some reason this one house is like a revolving door with tenants. I can not seem to find decent long term tenants.
I'm from the north east and this past weekend i had to take a 5.5hr ride cause this particular house was vacated by the current tenants before lease end and they ended up trashing the place. Since my pop passed, I had to incorporate a management company to help run the place which came at a hefty price, considering the rent. Ended up firing this mgmt company cause they have continuosly failed to consider me their best interest. This company had not clue the tenants left and never did the required 1-2 mth walk through inspection.
So now i had to meet with a contractor to rip out walls, remove/install new floors, doors and appliances. Not sure what this is costing me, but i'm angry cause people have no regard for other people's property.
Just not cool.

TweetSorry to hear it brother.Landlording props can definitely have it bad times.You can never tell today who's going to turn into a loser.
TweetThat has to be hard on you, I am sorry.
TweetI don't know the age range your renting to but if.your renting to anyone younger then 30 you might want to change that, usually.the older people are a little less likely to trash the place and leave
LIFT BIG, EAT BIG, GET BIG!
TweetHumm...sounds like exactly why i wont rent out anything. Im trying to sell my home, and ive had a few ppl tell me to possibly rent it out. I would never, ever do that. My home is too nice to be renting out, even to the nicest ppl. Most will not keep it up like the owner would, and you end up having to do alot of repairs.
Tweetwould never consider that...could put the relationship in jeopardy
TweetDamn, Skinny, Im sorry to hear that.
My nephew and his wife moved in to my moms house on the golf course. Really nice house. Then they brought in 5 cats without asking permission and They totally trashed my moms house. You would think they would have had some respect for my moms house, but they didnt.
People only care about themselves and to hell with everyone else..sad.
