Hello everyone! BP is my new favorite way to learn about REI, and I like to come here to get honest and direct answers to my admittedly plebeian questions. The level and amount of knowledge on here, combined with the ...

I would much rather own a nice commercial building in downtown Seattle with Starbucks on the lower level but my funds only allow me to buy bobs burger shack 100 miles away.

Forget about the 2% rule (rent / purchase price) in areas where no RE appreciation is expected.

Also just based on those snippets you gave he was pretty clearly advertising the property not the contract, which of course is offering to sell a property for someone else... or real estate brokering.Okay hopefully I made my thoughts on that turd burger clear.So the angle I want to point out is that agents don't walk on water.  

Just the same as the hamburger joint in town can sell burgers for more than it costs to make them and I still buy them, low-end rentals can be rented out for more than a mortgage would cost the tenant.

It would be more like a restaurant not furnishing ketchup for your burger, lol.

A lot of cities like Pittsburgh are trying to develop tech clusters that may or may not catch on but I have only half-jokingly suggested doing apartment market research the way Burger King used to market research; be across from McDonalds.

Have you been to Edzo's burger shop in Evanston?

Man, I think us East Nashville guys need to meet up for a burger or a beverage and talk shop.
