Your original post implied that the investors' total return is 8%, where most of my investors expect more than that when blending cash flow and appreciation. 

In a rough neighborhood you want to blend in, not stand out.

It's a great blend of what I've done so far, and I'd have a base salary for the first year until I got up and running.

I am searching for something that will easily blend in with the other properties around it.

More in the municipalities with high property taxes and insurance, because there taxes/insurance represent on an over-weighted proportion of over-all OpEx, and annual bumps to those two items will represent a higher blended bump on the overal OpEx.But, since we know that OpEx will go up at least 2%, how does it make sense to own property unless you can intellectually get behind 3% rent increases.

Rent-value ratios in the city are already too low to make predictable cashflow over time.The vibrance and cultural commodity of NYC is unparalleled (after all, I still want to live here), but it translates poorly into investment returns.

Sometimes it is also blended with number 1 fuel (kerosene) to lower the gel point or pour point.

There is a new program that blends borrower and co-borrower Ficos.
