They seem to forget it takes 10 years and on top of that some of them don't invest or acquire assets, like tangible assets including but not limited to property, stocks, bonds, CD's, mutual funds, or classic cars.They want to buy a home but they can't give up the honeymoon to Hawaii and new SUV in the driveway.

hi there, 1507sf city center in the middle of a market area, a no car zone with subway, tram and buses even boats near by. commercial area. for 286,722 . currently huge living room with 3 bedroom one amazing shower and a second not so much.im thinking classic bnb but i dont like dealing with the prices every day and there is so much competition now.I was considering co location , like a middle way between bnb and normal rent. hence all bills paid by me, and weekly cleaning service for the water areas and sheets (kitchen, shower, toilette) , as i still have my team in this area from former bnb aparts it could be easy to organise, what do you think? 

The classic "you must have money to make money" dilemma.LA being a renters market, there's no reason I can't get great return on renting out additional units (long or short term).

Commercial properties are not known for vast amounts of unforced appreciation but can be lovely cash flow vehicles.The move from appreciation to cash flow is a classic use of the 1031 exchange. 

Classic tulip mania.

It's always the old Italian landlords pulling this sort of thing, like it's in their DNA.We Greeks have never engaged in shoddy building or repair practices, never, ever, ever, down from the classical age to modernity!

I just finished the book How to Invest in Real Estate by Josh and Brandon.Along with countless other classics!

@Dan Kosko Ive heard good things about classic costal though I've never used them myself.

I'm looking at a Multifamily that is what I call a classic investor grade property.

A timeless classic.
