How much that increases your overall risk profile is dependent on how deep your pockets are, but as you add more and more leveraged properties the risk will increase.You also have a higher risk of reduced returns with an extended vacancy.The really interesting thing is if you are a buy and hold investor, and don't continually refinance to treat the properties as an ATM, the risk profile graphs between leveraged verses non-leveraged converge as the loan is paid off.Of course, we are looking at this is isolation.

It seems isolated the problems caused by management.

There are so many things going on right now it is hard to isolate the variables.Interestingly, the credit market has not seized up.
