However, I think the concepts about assets and liabilities are fairly easy to digest.

I rent the home for $1075, yielding a net monthly cash flow of $489 (or $5868 yearly net income)If you could please leave me your thoughts on how these investments stack up and also point me in the direction of a reliable and easy-to-digest method for calculation ROI/rate of return, I would greatly appreciate it.

I have probably done it a dozen times to try to digest it all.Obviously one issue with listening to it while driving is I don't have it written down in front of me to process fully and implement the steps as I go as easily.I have actually thought about getting a hard copy just to be able to really be able to work through some stuff when I have time (Whenever that might be!).

Just finished Brandon Turner's "The Book On Rental Property Investing" and am looking to either read another book on the subject, or put what I learned into the action.It was a lot to digest for someone who's brand new to real estate investing, but there were a few main takeaways I got from it.1.

I haven't done any research in that area for a couple of months but its hard to digest that rents are decreasing in that area especially when the domain is expanding substantially with office buildings and more employees/employers like facebook. https://www.statesman.com/business/20180906/sources-facebook-to-lease-entire-17-story-tower-at-austins-domain/1  I do know that there are more apartments that came on the market there but the house supply is still the same for the most part except for little infill projects.

My ideas are digested from a bunch of theirs and my own business philosophy. 

There is much here to digest by way of information!

While digesting it all, just keep in mind that some things in the areas of financing, regulations and taxation are different in Canada than the U.S.A. - but the general concepts are universal.You might try reaching out to @Gary McGowan who hosts a monthly REI gathering in the GTA to arrange to drop-in at the next one.

I am giving you the readers digest version on my dinner that I hosted in Buckhead Atlanta with these guys..

Again, I am new to this so there is a good chance I'm not even digesting all of the information correctly.
