Having a rental home may seem like an easy way to create a secondary income source, but you might just be surprised at the minimal dollars you’ll take home after all is said and done. Bob and Shawn go into the not-so-glorious side of having a rental home as an income source. Many renters don’t consider all of the work, time, and money that goes into being a landlord. This includes repairs, insurance payments, taxes, and just general wear and tear on a rental house. The takeaway? A rental home as investment income may not be worth the hassle because of the minimal amount of finances you may earn from it and the huge amount of money you’ll probably be pouring in.
