You will need to supplement your tenants rent long term if you plan on holding on to this property.Your 50K DP is buying a couple of hundred  per month in income leaving far lees to cover expences.

That isn't a problem for most people, but I supplement my cash flow with professional writing.

(Lots of people want to build, but they can't sell their homes, and absolutely no one wants to get a bridge loan anymore.)We got started in short sales to supplement our income while waiting for the home building business to rebound.

What I am wondering, is if I should pay off as much tuition as possible with money earned this summer (along with previous savings) or to let the same loans I have used the previous years disburse and use that money to supplement a real estate investment after I graduate, despite the additional interest I will need to pay (mix of subsidized and unsubsidized at around 6.5%)I have heard mixed opinions on this matter, and I feel that making loan repayment a priority instead of just paying the minimum monthly balance when I gradate will force me to miss out on the wonderful opportunity that is real estate investment.

I work full time and I enjoy my job but see real estate as a way to supplement our income.

My goal is to use my income from my job to supplement some real estate investing until I can accumulate enough passive income to quit and enjoy the freedom to be with my family.

I'd like to use real estate investment as a way to supplement my retirement and college education for my kids.

The owners, especially when supplemented by rebates, are flushing money every day they don’t look into upgrades.

Definitely supplement that by reading many of the REI books mentioned in the podcasts as well.
