You should now have an good basic understanding of how to manage income real estate.  Many of the principles also apply to a personal residence, but rental properties require a significant number of additional considerations and concerns.   We have seen that one of the most issues when buying real estate is that the deals are properly structured and that adequate contingencies are written into your purchase offer.  During the period of ownership, adequate lease agreements and other documentation, an understanding of the law, and following good procedures are critical to minimizing conflicts between landlord and tenants.
