You could put 200k in a high yield savings account (saw something yesterday on TV that was FDIC insured with 2.5% - 3% annual return) and basically end up in the same place with cash return.

My idea: in addition to shared laundry facilities in the basement, what if I also set up a small shared gym (a treadmill/ bike/ rower/yoga area, etc) and a flat screen TV or two and maybe a sofa?

If you want cable TV, it is extra... however, obviously you can bundle it for a deal.
