In theory if rented out for both the minimum amounts ($600+$600+$1000 = $2200) giving me a net surplus of +$200 (I did not factor in utilities ) With this I can have my mortgage paid and save for any unexpected costs, while saving my work income to continue investing.Let me know what you think, and if I'm on the right track or not.Thanks,
