Having never been a landlord, being one looks like the easiest damned thing in the world. My landlord does literally nothing and collects US$1300 a month from me. In the year I've rented from him, I've asked him about getting the busted mailbox fixed (US$6). I've been a renter in other places since I was 18 and I really can't think of anything that's put my landlords under any hardship, or even made them exert effort. Am I a weirdly easy tenant? Are there that many people out there who make trouble for property owners and cost them crazy amounts of money and make renting unprofitable? Is it because I rent in newer buildings that don't require expensive upkeep?

Yeah, my area (Hong Kong) is in the midst of a ridiculous property bubble that when it finally bursts will make for some great real estate investment opportunities. And I've always been a more conservative investor in that I'd probably prefer long-term renting over short-term speculating. Again, it looks like the easiest job in the world from the perspective of a (apparently) model renter, but I guess if you get a bad tenant they can really mess things up for you both financially and make your life uncomfortable.

What happens if you don't pay HOA dues in the US? Does it vary by state? They can't evict you from a property you own, right? That'd be crazy.
