@keshlam skimming the top questions for rental-property, I can't actually see much about being a landlord besides just financials of the mortgage. Maybe you should link to those questions you say are related.

| Apr 10, 2015 at 19:03 | comment | added | keshlam | There have been past questions here about the business of being a landlord, absentee or not, which have coveted many of the practical aspects from financial to finding and dealing with tenants. I'd highly recommend reading those first, then coming back to us if you have specific questions those didn't address. Note that rental is a business, not just an investment. It's also questionably on-topic as a personal finance question but I'm not sure where else it belongs. Entrepreneurs? | |
