There are some provisions to get the money out when you are 45 years old but you need to eat today. 

A handyman landlord working with minimal help can do good work in these places, stay on top of things, and keep perhaps ten of these tight little ships running with practically zero outside labor costs eating into his profits or excessive time commitments, while he does modest, leisurely little spec rehabs and occasionally larger live-in flips anywhere he finds deals, accelerating his timeline to  pay off his street of moneymakers. 

If not, that will eat into your profits.Also, closing costs seem low unless the seller is paying some of them or you're an agent (or this is off market). 

If you expect to eat, expect to hit the ground running, be a self starter, and ****ing close!
