Yes, I agree, with Ethan, that is about right for percentages.  It will also make your absentee ownership much less stressful.  Probably a good investment at this time. Good luck and let me know if I can help.  I taught for two years in Abu Dhabi and have been back in America for about year and a half!  Michael V
