A lot of people have a hard time saving for a down payment
Especially those with student debt.

I guess I'm not understanding here. Why not just stay within your budget....

Income rises as you get better at your job plus

That plus monthly rent is often equivalent to a mortgage for similar sized homes

Sometimes work requires you to move. So instead of selling your home you rent it

I get your generalization, but I've been renting one out for 15 years

I have had 2 families. The first one was great, the second one has been bad

I don't even do a deposit. They pay the rent the 1st of the month for the month.

Worse yet is to rent an executive home to the sister of a friend

Depends entirely on how she looks. 20/20 vision is important.

Mistake: Don't rent to rich Easterners either who are very comfortable squeezing you and suing over everything.
