Hi all,I am in need of a gutter company that specializes in seamless gutters in the greater Detroit area and that works with historic homes.

So in that sense you get some stable income but the upside of the smaller retail units attached at higher rents for a blended cap rate for the center.   

You have to look at blended cap rate over time as the primary lease term winds down.

I personally only use a contractor for Gutters because you have to have a gutter machine to make them seamless.

Now you have a blended principal payemnt, where part is tax free, and part is taxed as income...

You can often find a nice blend of appreciation and cashflow in this strategy and there are some property managers that can make the management nearly as passive as LTRentals, if you find the right one. 

I look at going in because I want to know worst case what the existing income is on a property if it takes longer to stabilize than anticipated.Some want 5 cap on current and others 7 to 8 cap on current and blend the cap rate up once stabilized.You have to define what YOUR TIME is worth and what return you want to work on a property.

The Columbus market is also a strong hybrid market with a blend of cash-flow and appreciation.

We have a blended family of 8!
