Total return through principal paydown, tax savings and cash flow were about 182%.My real estate strategy is clear:Acquire real estate properties that cash flow on 10 and 15 yr mortgages (I already have all my 30 yr slots taken)Acquire real estate in good areas (accomplished with this Collierville property)Acquire real estate to save on Federal TaxesUse 30 yr mortgages to support shorter term mortgages with lower cash flowOnce 10 yr mortgages get paid off, start paying off the oldest 15 yr mortgagesKeep acquiring properties to save on taxes as deprecation schedule is being accelerated At some point, with enough paid for homes, start paying myselfThat is why the 182% return is so important.

Because of this, you now have 2 open slots with Fannie Mae and can now buy additional properties and refinance them with a Fannie Mae loan.
