Last time I rode the NYC subway, in 2009, a homeless entered the crowded car during evening rush hour sat down on a bucket sit and began taking a crap.

Update on our 2-family flip in Southington, CTBelow are updated pictures of the tile in the kitchen, bathroom, and shower which has all now been grouted on the 2nd floorAlso below are pictures of the subway tile backsplash in the kitchen which will be grouted here in the coming daysa second set of new kitchen cabinets were installed on the opposite wall as well. 

I have mentioned subways for instance.. or take and bake pizzas I have buddies that own multiples of those franchise and make a very nice living and they leveraged into those just like folks leverage into RE..

It is actually a coop in midtown very close to the subway with a very easy going board, with mostly 1 bedroom and studio.

Warren Buffet was quoted as saying, "Wall Street is the only place that people ride to in a Rolls-Royce to get advice from those who take the subway”.

New school systems and even a subway being built by the airport.

New schools, subway system, by the airport, new construction nearby.

Don't forget about taxes and all operating expenses in your IRR calcs (if you don't know how to run IRRs, search BP, google or YouTube and you'll any # of resources to learn).My analysis showed that I would achieve the best IRR by holding and renting 1.5 more years then selling right before I hit the IRS capital gains tax (I moved out of it 1.5 yrs ago)... the neighborhood is appreciating fast due to a subway extension opening in 2 years. 

Project for another investor.Third pic: White cabinets with New Caledonia granite, a medium grey, and subway tile.

My two favorite parts are the light grey with the white and pop of red on the trim and the shower with the subway tile.
