Ask uncle James and uncle Engelo on 10+ years of data…  its always amazing to me when i see investors sit on rentals for a few months trying to capture that 25 to 50 buck a month rent because thats what they were told it would rent for or its what they ran their numbers at .. 

The location and size of this property guarantees that it will be a consistent monthly revenue in.

Capturing the benefits of owning a home instead of paying rent? 

This demographic trend contributes to a consistent demand for rental properties.7.

If that's speculation, then so is thinking that rent will come in consistently every month.

Which is basically another 40 hours per work.Are you able to document (and then claim with a straight face) that you're a hopeless insensitive workaholic who consistently works 80-hour weeks, neglects his wife and otherwise has no life?

It's not as much as you think and will save you tons in the end because they make it much easier for the bookkeeper to do their job and categorize items correctly so that when you send your files to your CPA there is little to do and everything was already optimized by the CFO to capture the best tax write-offs PLUS you've made the best trade-offs.  

I want to generate a consistent stream of cash flow and make it as passive as possible to do so.

Basically, if you're able to capture the equity it means the underlying house price went to your favor.

I can speak to two of the ME mountains - I prefer the areas around Sugarloaf and Saddleback mountains since you also have the lakes there (Rangeley Lake and Flagstaff Lake) which drive more consistent business in the summer months as well.
