I have been a landlord in the valley for 30 years.
Selecting tenants is the most important skill you can acquire when renting real estate, IMHO
Still make mistakes from time to time, but not often.
Better to have ‘no renter’ than a ‘bad renter’...
Consider selling off slices of your property for a profit, converting renters into buyers but retaining control of the public areas of the property.
