Just google the following: - special assessment - zombie condos - Florida condos (look for recent news)Since you are not living near the properties anyways, why not look in a landlord friendly state where the purchase prices are lower?

But as far monthly payment you could easily buy a house in a cheaper location have less roommates and the same monthly payment or the same number of roommates and a lower monthly payment.

Cheap houses in lower class neighborhoods will get you cash flow with a lot of headache.

While I could have gone lower I am lowering my risk tolerance because I expect a recession in late 2019 to 2020.

In a market like this where properties are sitting a bit longer, buyer demand is kind of stagnant, many appraisals have been coming in lower than anticipated.

Getting a loan to payoff another loan with a lower interest rate doesn't make any sense. we do private lending and can get double digits returns consistently.

Obviously you want to lower expenses while maximizing revenue. 

Lower the price2.

There are so many options for LVP now, from lower priced to higher.

Right now they are "high" (compared to 2020) and people "think" they are going lower.
