I will say we are way out of town with just a small market close so it makes sense to have a fully loaded house.We only provide 2 small soaps and 2 shampoo bottles in each bathroom.

However the older generation that lived through the 80s really like that arcade cabinet and they are the ones paying for the trip. 😉 

Given this is a front loaded fee that needs to be overcome in asset performance, it is a lot harder to absorb on "smaller" deals.  

But now 50% are not paying.

A property is only worth what people can afford to pay for it. 

Right now, I do have the "REALTOR" status but wondering if it make sense to keep paying the $800/yr to keep the status?

With rates coming down should help some sellers off load over priced properties and will help buyers get aggressive with good class A and B locations.

The reason is over a course of time the vast majority will never payoff and the fund will have to foreclose and take possession which cost a boat load of money ..

Find a rich old guy who has made a crap load of money in real estate.  

Quote from @Jokari Trueheart: HI, almost 11 months ago I purchased 3 duplexes and I borrowed the funds from my personal residence which I took out a equity agreement for the down payment on the investment property, great idea at the time because I have 10 years to pay it off and theres no payment requirement, but , I learned more about the consequence that it takes a large chunk of my equity the longer I take to pay it back, so my goal was to refi cash out the investment property to pay it back but I don't think theres enough equity yet to pull the full $106k needed, I only borrowed $88k but with the equity percentage for one year i'm paying about $18k in equity on top of the amount I borrowed if I pay it off in year one, so I need this paid off ASAP before it increases more.
