Fast track to now, and having lived in Australia the past 6 years, both countries have experienced astronomical appreciation and it has left me in awe that my parents sold their house in 2007 before moving to the states.

That Wind Pool policy was a joke with astronomical prices.

We have astronomical student loan debt from a top law and medical school.

Make sure you account for space rent as that can be astronomical, even in the inland empire it can be very high.

The downpayment is generally required in cash, commonly a wire transfer.This means you'll have to do a cash advance with your card, and pay the astronomical rates and fees that go along with it.

That is astronomically low for the SFR management industry.We have extended, through lease renewal, 1,025 expiring leases this year and many at no charge to the owner.  

Most pans have a drain provision if you want to hook it up, but if you drain this thing to sight unseen you will never know about a problem until you or your tenant gets an astronomical water bill or something else breaks.2.

After we move out after 1 year, we will then be making positive cash flow of 2500 from now also renting the bottom unit (yes NJ rent prices are astronomical).  

This would obviously turn it into a quadplex, which (as I understand) would accomplish a number of things:-It would be a residential dwelling, so I could refi into a traditional mortgage instead of this commercial loan I'm on now-my insurance wouldn't be as astronomical; I've ran into tons of problems insuring this place simply because it's technically an "apartment"-there would be fewer tenants to deal with and fewer headaches1.

While anyone from Massachusetts will agree that inside 128 is great for long term appreciation, it seems like not only is it astronomical in price, but also not so good for cash flow.
