If you have the time, energy, and willingness to be a landlord, you can rent out your property to tenants. Landlords are responsible for paying the mortgage, property taxes, and insurance while maintaining the property and finding tenants. They also have to deal with any problems that arise. Renting out their properties is a hands-on investment, so it's important to carefully consider what you're willing to do before taking on this task. There are other strategies landlords can take when renting out their properties in order to ensure profitability. One popular strategy is charging enough rent to cover expenses until the mortgage has been paid off at which point the majority of the rent becomes profit.
