I like them for their milk (cashflow) and I get paid over and over again.Both are good investments if you know what you're doing.

I recommend you check out mr. money mustache's site.  

The cash expenses are possibly true if the owner is milking the property for cash flow and skimping on capex/repairs (though the owner should accrue a reserve for those costs).  

Here is what the "rules" really mean:2% - Your milk isn't as heavy, tastes like the dairy version of light beer, but you can get used to it.50% - The percentage of people, so I'm told, that drink 2% milk now.70% - The percentage of increase over the last 5 years for those now drinking 2% milk...again, so I've been told.Bottom line is this.

I suspect the owner already refi all the money out, stop paying mortgage & HOA fee, milking it as a rental until the first foreclose.  

She tried her best to reform me, she would sit my sister and I down with milk and fresh baked cookies and give us a English lesson until she finally figured out that the milk and cookies seemed to slow down our learning process.  

Here's my entry to get things started:This is begging to be developed into a super-exclusive resort attraction of some sort, and milk the vanity of Manhattan's elites for all they're worth.

It's really simple.  1% is used when you want your milk to taste like water, 2% is used when you want to drink healthier milk.  

And it will reduce your debt to income ratio.I am thinking that a 5/1 must hae a great rate, I would try to milk that first 5 years as much as possible.
