My ex-inlaws owned a few small apartment buildings. From what
I could tell, they had good tenants. But every weekend we were
over there fixing some stupid thing or another, I swore I'd never
be a landlord if I could help it. What a hassle. The light bulb in
the hallway is out, the kitchen sink is backed up, it was always
something. Not for me.

Forget if you have problem tenants. That's a whole 'nother can of
worms.
