i would always prefer coin op if given the choice since its a little extra income.

I like this adage (though you need to build on it perhaps): "The best time to invest in real estate is always twenty years ago" Heard it recently on The Real Estate Guys podcast, but they didn't coin the term.

@Brandon Turner Turner coined the term "House Hacking" to describe using your personal residence as an investment property.Read this: http://www.biggerpockets.com/real-estate-investing Listen to the Bigger Pockets Podcast with @Joshua Dorkin and Brandon turner.I don't have an Apple device so I stream the episodes on my Android phone using the Stitcher app.

We never know when we're on the other side of the coin.

Consider putting in a coin operated laundry. 

If you don't have that kind of coin then use your network to find an investors and then draw up an operating agreement on ownership percentages of the asset.  

I loved coin op machines when I owned multifamily!

What’s the term they coined, they use it a lot when describing investing in a property and renting out the rooms?

And where are all the crypto fan boys now LOL.. unless of course you bough in the beginning at 1k or so a coin. 

There are always two sides to a coin.
