I had a conversation with a guy who had/has 26 rentals in TV. Many of them, not all, were in the Historical area of TV. This was a couple years ago. I put my pencil to a couple of rentals and found it hard to be profitable and potential for a lot of hassle. One thing to remember, if you rent it out for less than six months there is sales tax to pay. I would think about it "long and hard" with some professional advise before I invested a million in rentals.
