$7,500 invested in the market at 8% return over 3 years is close to $9,500 in total. 

I totally understand that it depends but I think what I am looking for is a bit more input and guidance.

that is totally unrealistic return.. your going to blow your 15k and be very dissappointed why would they give you 50k profit deals just to sell you a 15k course.. ??? 

Investment: $124.2K; ROI: 73%/year; 10-year equity: $1.46M; Total cash return: $1.45M. 10-year equity multiple: 10x on $124K investment.

Total of 5 bedrooms and 3 units.

Doing a 100+ unit deal is totally doable as your first transaction.  

I'm thinking interest rates will sit at 6.25-7.5%, with total cost at roughly 210k.

@Samuel KimEven though I already gave you an answer earlier on this thread, I need to add a few comments after seeing some totally irresponsible and reckless advice given by other commenters.Short story is:A.

Total Investment: $297K; ROI: 25%/year; 10-year equity: $1.5M.

Hey Joanne, you’re definitely onto something with room rentals.. it can be an excellent strategy for offsetting a hefty mortgage and, in some cases, bringing in higher total rent than a single lease.
