For a long term hold, these benefits can substantially augment returns, and less management headaches open up room for additional acquisitions from an operations standpoint.Thanks for sharing your experiences, looks like you guys are doing very well.

Maybe lemonade made would be along the lines of "New city investments to augment your new home! 

Find a job you enjoy and augment it with real estate, don't be in a rush to only do real estate.

It's been a while since I was a real cigar aficionado, but I do enjoy a nice "stogie" or pipe every now and then, especially in the summertime while sitting outside on our patio enjoying the warm evening air (possibly augmented with our fire pit) and basking in the peaceful tranquil atmosphere with a nice glass of scotch, rum, or even beer.I've always been partial to Arturo Fuentes, especially the Chateaus in both regular and double varieties, Ashton's, and even Macanudo's, which have a light easy smoke and come in as many shapes and sizes as one would find at Huntington Beach, CA on a sunny July day.

They the turn their aggregated income all on paying off one property, get it done, and then move all their augmented aggregated income to the next property, get that done, and rapidly snowball all the money to paying everything off.There are all too many others, however, who base their business model on perpetual growth, think their spreadsheets are magic and will always work out month after month, smugly believe they've calculated for every possible manifestation of Murphy's Law that could hurt them, and just keep on acquiring and acquiring (and inflating and inflating their lifestyles) until something breaks their positive cash flow prediction model for a month or six and they go swirling down the toilet to a bankruptcy they never saw coming.When you owe someone money and you've committed to paying them over a schedule, there are always risks.

Another thing to keep in mind is that KnT is not grounded {in any orthodox manner ... we have frequently found newer receptacles powered through KnT and grounded to nearby plumbing or hydronic heating pipes -  which creates a whole host of other potential issues}.Even if you do not replace it - you will undoubtedly need to augment it (not through extension of the existing KnT) with additional circuits to meet modern electrical demands and code compliance.
