We've owned the condo for about a year and a half now.
( have stayed in it 3 nights total) In that time we have had three
different tenants and had trouble with all of them. I am not sure,
but I think I have already been stiffed for more rent than I
lost during my entire career as an active landlord.
Correction............that is not true. I do recall a bigger
rental shortfall. Anyway, this is especially worrisome as we will
be using the place. I guess I don't mind losing the rent as much
as the wear and tear plus the chance of missing personal
property. I used to rent them shabby and unfurnished.
This is a different deal. Anyway, I did get about as much rent last year as I estimated going in. It's been a real PITA collecting it
though.
