Along with that also comes the opportunity to increase NOI dramatically by purchasing less expensive but more properties.If your spidey senses are tingling about the neighborhood quality you probably ought to listen.

It is a great model for boosting cash returns, but it is harder than one might think to pull off (as you describe) and there are definitely some pitfalls to be aware of.

@Greg Morris I have yet to make my first deal but the idea is to if you wanted to sell your house for 100k I would make you a dramatic low offer of like half that if not a little more.

While many people visit Orlando year-round, late December sees a substantial boost in all key performance indicators.

Leverage boosts returns. 

This will dramatically improve your cash flow and equity growth as compared to just buying one more house.

But an extra 7,000 a year could only help by boosting those other investments with more capital.

On the one hand, as long as we aren't significantly losing money on a month to month basis I feel it best to maintain the property purely from an appreciation standpoint (strong location close to the a large medical center) with an dramatic increase in housing.  

This boosted my credit huge when I was younger.

I think that if I could get them to sell it at $160,000 and I could put in some updating of the features along with vinyl flooring in most of the house, that it would boost the overall appreciation and make it more attractive to more renters.
