I don't know, I like to keep my business profitable?

Renting and eating the loss is a gamble on future rent increases, but the market and high costs might not make it worth the stress.

Not a great time to be chasing marginally profitable deals.

When I sold my properties, the price did not increase much (though there was still a slight profit, couple with the rental I had over the years and currency gain (bought when USD was low and sold when USD was high).

It's a strategy that has proven effective time and again.Five years is a solid timeframe to account for market fluctuations and ensure profitable sales.

They sell it to an investor for market rate and make a good profit.4.

With such low rental yields, the return on investment (ROI) and cash-on-cash (CoC) return are negative when factoring in mortgage payments only, not including any other factors.In this market, it seems almost impossible to make a profit using traditional rental property investing strategies.

Then it will become a profit center.

I’m presuming profiting as well.

I understand the argument that the general public should not be restricted from investing in “highly profitable” deals, but what tends to end up being offered to unaccredited, unsophisticated investors in the “junk” end of the investment spectrum.
