I decided to buy up some real estate in Jax, Florida.
I thought it would be a great retirement project for me.
I would own a few rentals, live off the rent, as well as do a bit of handyman work. Well it turned out to be a lot of work. My leaseholders consistently were calling me about squishy floors, problems with plumbing, no AC, the works. I also had a lot of upkeep when it came to painting, grass work, as well as cleaning. Anytime someone moved out it was on me to find a modern leaseholder. I would interview, background check, as well as get the place ready. I worked harder than before I retired. How terrible is that? So I decided that I was sick of being a landlord. My next order was to sell my rentals. I thought about listing however I knew it would take time. I didn’t want to eat a piecemeal either. I wanted them all to go at the same time. I wanted to get in as well as get out. Just be done with it. Well my only option was to sell my rental properties fast for money. A money offer from a Jax real estate agent was quite nice. The girl gave me a bulk price for everything. I didn’t need to evict anyone, I didn’t need to clean, no repairs needed, as well as there were no hidden fees. That seemed way too great to be true. I just signed some papers as well and then was done with it. I was absolutely relieved to throw in the towel. I am just not split out to be a landlord. I didn’t need the extra money. Now I can finally supply as well as absolutely relax. I will never own a rental again.
