@Jerryll Noorden, this is what you may call different strokes for different folks.

Plenty of ways to make money in RE and different strokes for different folks.If it were me?

My goal is the FEWEST high quality units that will keep up (and ideally exceed) inflation and pay my living expenses (with reasonable margin) ... beyond that is just extra hassle and extra risk for the privilege of buying a yacht to try to water ski behind IMO (or some other useless toys that ends up owning you and serves to only stroke your own ego).

I had a stroke about 41/2  years ago and I need something I can.

Different strokes for different folks = different people and areas have different success rates with offer acceptance.Some people say they get "all" of their offers accepted (at least I read one post in the BP forums where somebody made a claim along those lines).Some people say they get 1 in 10 offers accepted, some 1 in 20, some 1 in 40 - so this can be all over the map.

And if you've helped your agents @Jay Hinrichs and can "bang this out in 5 minutes," why waste key strokes on advising me to ask my broker instead of offering to help me.

I am currently 60 years old and unemployed because of a brain annuerism and a stroke i had when i was 54 and owned my own business.  

If I was a betting man i would bet that you are putting a lot more in the bank than the majority of the posters on here that have one agenda and that is to stroke their ego's.I could not agree more with Deanna's response above.

Well, not everyone want's to buy, I have countless #'s of such tenant's, and yes some prefer to keep there cash in a safe vs a bank, different strokes for different folks. 

You generally only have to stroke tenants slightly to convince them you are doing maintenance inspections not checking up on them.
