When it works, it works really well.

When it goes wrong, it fails catastrophically.

That is to say, the variance of slumlording and poker arr probably equal :)

Yes, investments involve risk. If you believe that another cataclysmic crash is coming to the real estate market, then stay out. If you think it's unlikely, it can be a relatively low risk investment for the returns.
I definitely agree, but I wouldn't say the market crash is the biggest risk.

Tenants who damage the property and withhold rent are way worse.
