Ah yes, was considering this. But (a) stupid laws with rental properties and (b) aren't tenants a pain in the ass, much bigger than your average tech team lead?

Yes, tenants can be a pain. The laws have increasingly become less investor friendly. In my experience having a good managing agents provides a valuable buffer. The real money is made when you cash out and collect the capital gains. Of course, you need to tax accountant to make sure you don't give the government most of your gains.
