I am just not sure I can swallow $1,500/entity.

So all things considered, the 5% and 6% returns don't sound terrible to me, especially given the costs of selling and where the market is in general (high prices and relatively high interest rates).The 1.5% on the other hand is pretty tough to swallow.

Unfortunately I do think settlement and having to swallow some of the cost is going to be best case scenario.

Being taken advantage of would be a tough pill to swallow for me so I've been (overly) cautious when looking to put my money into an investment.  

This probably provides an adequate level of protection for Freddie.It’s a concept that is hard to swallow.

Passing on a couple properties that have become gold.....the should have/could have....Oh man...now that is hard to swallow! 

And what is the amount of increase that is reasonable in this situation that a tenant would be ready to swallow?

This has been a very tough pill to swallow.

Dont' get me wrong- if you follow my posts at all, you'll see I am a HUGE advocate for banking on appreciation, but $800 per month is a lot to swallow.

After swallowing some lumps thanks to one thread I posted back in April, I should (crossed fingers, no blown furnaces or sheard off roofs) be in a good position next year to reinvest.This is hopefully not a beat the dead horse, "where is the best cash flow in X" post, more of a strategy question for anyone who knows the market in CT.Here is what my limited knowledge/intuition tells me: Waterbury, Bridgeport, parts of Hartford cash flow best because of the inherent risk, lower fairfield county cash flows worst (today) because of NYC effect on price/rent, and there is an in-between SOMEWHERE.I think that somewhere is in the central part of the state between route 8 and 91 north of new haven, east of waterbury.
