Twenty to twenty five thousand DOLLARS in appreciation money each year plus mortgage pay down with no money down.

For reasons I don't fully grasp, most of my tenants (5 units) have turned out to be in their twenties.

@Aditya Var- I lived in jax for over twenty years ... st johns county has always been hott. good school districts from what i hear... but yeah.. even duva/jax is getting expensive.

I have a you lower twenties couple I recently rented to and the young woman is asking for phone lines for DSL.

My wife Lauren and I have developed properties in Greenwich over the past twenty-five years; it was a challenging leaning curve with the vast changes in Planning and Zoning and the increased demands from clients.

I am REALLY comfortable being the small apartment investor - First four units, then sixteen more, then twelve, then twelve again, then twenty, then seventeen. 

The idea would be buy a house with needed rehab, live in the house for 2-4 years in our mid twenties, and then hold it long-term for rental income as we move on to smaller, more "grown-up" homes.Below are my pros and cons but I am looking for any feedback on other things that I may not be thinking of:Pros - 1.

The interest rate on the note is 5.5%, payments are interest only or more,and all outstanding principle is due the beneficiary twenty years from closing.If the underlying note of $1,100,000. were bank financed, and I wanted or needed tosell, I would need to attract a buyer who was willing to get all new financing throughsome means, or write a very big check at closing.
