I decided not to buy the apartment in Dixie´s building.

Last weekend, I went to stay to Dixie´s so that I could see the apartment one floor over Dixie´s. But after thinking it over, I decided it was too expensive. Yet I am thinking that I should spent my inheritance in something better than to have it in the Bank. I´ll check on apartments so that I can buy a small one to rent. That could be better than what I get now.

Being a landlord comes with its own set of expenses, I have rented our Florida place and while it pays for itself, it doesn't provide a lot of income and then there are repairs.

Being a landlord was not for us at all.

Yes, for one person maybe a smaller apartment would be a good idea.

@marguicha means buying an apartment for an investment.

@marlina Oh, now I understand! Sorry. We thought to do this, for an added income.

@kobesbuddy We used to have a house in a certain area in Toronto and rented it. We had so many problems that we sold it after a few years.

A small apartment would be best for you.

Think twice before buying an apartment to rent. I do not know how are your laws in case the tenant does not pay the rent. My sister in law had two apartments that she rented, he has so many problems, one did not pay and she spent more in lawyers bills than what she got. The others paid, but when they left the apartment was in such a bad shape she had to spent plenty of money to repair it. Finally, she spent more than she got.

This is one of the things that have kept me from buying until now.

I agree with @LadyDuck - the best way is to consider everything and think about it.
