I own four bizarre rental properties, each with multiple apartments! I was so excited to purchase those properties.
- I was sure the investment would hastily pay for itself plus provide a nice income.
I had plans to continue to buy more properties over the years, however, I soon discovered that handling the needs of the renters is a aggravating plus full-time task, but not all of the renters pay their rent on-time, they lie about having pets. I was originally mowing the laws at all of the properties. The yard would be littered with toys, trash, cat poop plus shrubbery furniture. I’d spend more time picking up after the renters than absolutely mowing the sod. I was getting constant iPhone calls for ridiculous complaints. I had a renter tell myself and others that a light fixture was broken plus needed to be replaced; When I went over there plus checked, I discovered that the lightbulb was blown out. I have a task above plus beyond serving as a landlord. I labor more than four afternoons per month from nine to more than four… Spending my evenings plus weekends running around taking care of the rental properties was harshly aggravating. I finally turned the whole responsibility over to a property management company. It has been such a relief. I labor with a single agent who takes care of renting the apartments, collecting rents, complaints plus repairs. She hires professionals to repair issues with the plumbing, electric, heating or cooling. She provides a buffer between the renters plus myself, although the fees of the property management company split into my profits, the convenience is totally worth it.
