I predict you've seen no more rent and no payment of the tenant caused plumbing call since serving the notice.

But I'd take anyone's prediction on rental rates with a grain of salt and more than a dash of "show me".  

Market Appreciation is where you will make the most money over a 10-year period but is the least predictable. 

. :)I couldn't resist.As Jonathan noted, whenever anyone says "I want to invest in syndications" it is opening yourself up to being spammed by every possible capital raiser that lurks on these forums, proven or otherwise.Not being accredited does not stop you from buying property directly (you likely knew this) or from investing in the stock market into various real estate deals.  

These investors are typically large financial institutions looking for safe, predictable returns, such as pension funds, insurance companies, and banks.Key concepts to understand in economics and finance are risk and reward.

If you day-trade or read the tea leaves for hot stock tips or play the ponies or simply put your money in index funds, do any of these things occupy your interest like real estate?

When I was working out numbers for seller financing, I got to the point of giving the owner $315,000 lump sum then taking over the loan at 2000/month however when you do ROI that means you'll get $800/month cashflow at best which is 800*12months for a total of 9600/year CF. if you do 9600/315,000 that means you get a ROI of 3%. which is not nearly as good as stock market. also 315,000 lump sum I do not have :( I need help.

No one can predict how much they will go up, and this simple clause helps protect the buyer and gives them a reason to get out of the contract.

I currently have a CPA (only handles taxes and offers standard tax deductions advice) and a wealth manager at Abacus (handles retirement investments and stocks- IRA, 401K, etc).

Is it just like reporting stocks or is it a headache for your accountant to track these investments?
