As a DIY landlord, I just got my 3BR/3.5BA apartment back from my tenants who rented it for 3 years. (This used to be our primary residence but we moved out of the city during COVID and decided to rent it out.) They were a family with an annual combined income of $500K with 2

I think I’m going back to flip phones. There’s such a thing as too much access.

Some your comments are hilarious. 😂 To those that say I’m a fool for calling myself a DIY landlord, my building requires licensed certified contractor. Next, for those claiming I’m getting ripped off based on the quote and you don’t live in Manhattan, I envy your costs.

I'm convinced there's just a higher premium for contractors to work in Manhattan after speaking with 4 different contractors.

Rich people are willing to pay a premium for high quality people that they trust. Also, I'm sure there's a reason for the $150K salary because the list of responsibilities and expectations must be MUCH more than the typical housekeeper.

I think traders care, but long-term buy & hold investors don't care. There would be much more volatility if passed.

Yes...this is after negotiating it down from $32K. Cost of labor, materials, insurance, certificates, etc....have all gone up, especially in NYC. 😒

We’re in a world where social media moves markets more than large institutional whales. 😂

Teacher is surprising. Unless teacher includes private school / university teacher or private tutor or teachers with their own education business, I find this surprising.

No, we're preparing to sell it. The yield is not great and we only rented it because it was our primary residence. With rates coming down next year, we're getting ready to sell.

Yes, its been frustrating for me and my wife to rent our primary residence especially after we did a complete gut renovation only to get it back trashed! 🎯This is the part of the "cost" that is not talked about enough in rental real estate investing.
