A Reliable Income StreamLandlords with one or two rentals can collect rent going from door to door. Anyone with a large real estate portfolio cannot easily do that. Dropbox and mail delivery are risky; the invitation for theft is considerable. Tenants who get behind in rent can disrupt the income flow.
Rent must be collected reliably. Electronic transfer permits the rent money to be placed in a landlord’s bank account quickly and efficiently.
Repair Damage Immediately
Depreciation will happen. A rental which is continually occupied will develop a lived-in look. Plumbing and electricity can become problems that lead to tenant complaints. A hole in the wall might permit easy entrance to vermin. Tenants can make things worse by hiding damage or by trying to repair it themselves.
Do-it-yourself is not the best way to fix things. It is always better to hire a professional repair contractor to do the work. However, not all repair contractors in San Diego are ethical. Landlords must be careful with who does the repair work on their investment property.
Eviction
This is a potential powder keg. A bad tenant, someone who doesn’t pay rent on time or ignores the lease, is an unnecessary nuisance. California law is strict, and procedures must be followed. Finally, eviction may take some time to process. There is the very real risk of the eviction process backfiring and the landlord is sued for discriminatory behavior.
Even when the eviction happens, there is a chance of economic loss. The empty rental is not making money and the landlord must get a new tenant as soon as possible.
