I think the long-term plan for this home is either to sell it later on or keep it as a rental as this isn't our forever home. 

I am 100% ok with my w2 providing me income to maintain my life and grow a nest egg for the later aspect of life  

Im looking for answers on if this property is going to cost to much to repair later?  

With a 7% interest rate and a high HOA, it could definitely help your cash flow in the long run, especially if you’re looking for passive income to reinvest later.

Are you looking to build on the vacant lots or just hold on to them and sell them later?

They called back about two hours later.  

You might not uncover that with a newer home until much, much later.

Later i found out I actually wanted the class focused on building apartments.   

Several years later and though it has gotten much much better, there's still a level of "what now" that crosses my mind when I get an email from them.

Participants in the commercial real estate space could do themselves a lot of favors by forgetting entirely the concept of purchase cap rate.Cap rate has only one useful purpose--and that is to estimate the price in which the property may sell for at a later date.
