The building would ideally consist of apartments on the second and third floor with commercial space(s) on the first. 

I’m 24 years old and when I started was consistently encouraged to buy a home as quickly as possible for specific reasons.

After you get your first property I'd look out of state and go from there, but consistency is key!

., thanks for the cold, emotionless honesty.I could pick and choose a few decisions to nitpick, but you're not looking for that, don't need that, and it seems to me like needless piling on.The one thing I will comment on is the idea of a landlord feeling like he must/should generate consistent cashflow on a fully mortgaged property, especially when the mortgages in question are 20-year or less. 

Hey guys my name Is Lance, I'm a real estate investor in Cleveland, Ohio.I recently put a multifamily property under contract that from all the numbers, appears to be a KILLER cashflow property.I'm asking 88k for a 4 unit property that consists of 2 Duplexes with their own parking and everything.

Their interest rates are usually in the 6%-9% range and typically consist of some sort of step-up 30 yr.

Not much on highways, restaurants, bars, etc.Avg rents looking to be consistently over $1,000 with some upwards of $1,500.

I have consistently made annual ROI of 58.44% on my investments with him.

When someone consistently refers me business I can't help but think of them the first time I have something that may be of interest to them.Beyond that be known as someone who closes deals.

If your model projects (and worse yet relies on) consistent value increases in order for your numbers to work, you very well may end up with a problem.2: Rents can also fall (gasp!).
