the terms of your agreement with the agent will lay that out

New primary mortgage will be about $2500 a month, old house that I will rent out long term is $1000 a month.

Historically, real estate will appreciate over the long term.  

If the market is tough, I reduce the rent rate over the full 12-month term.

I have an opportunity to make a quick 30k in equity, but only cash flow around $25 — if I look at long term appreciation, that seems to make sense to me, but am I overlooking something and trying to make this work?

For me personally long term rentals add another layer of complexity and staff needs.

This is how long-term success is built.

You can generally get the best terms (max leverage and best rates) on an owner-occupied house.

The city’s robust economic growth and steady population influx continue to drive strong rental demand, making it an ideal choice for long-term investment success.Best of luck!

If you ever see someone offering terms that are too good to be true, you might as well just post your SS# and banking information on IG.
