Further, the property may qualify for larger loans based on the increased cash flow ability to service debt.  

The deal was successful and later on we sold the property at a significant profit and 1031 to something larger. 

I have also done the math and my account over the next 20 years will grow larger assuming a flat 7% return by taking loans then not. 

Sure, they may be able to grow to a very moderate size,  add a few units, or trade up to a larger investment, but as for real scalability: NO.Why?  

Also, I would recommend adding some sort of screensaver to the TV screen and I second that a professional photographer is the way to go.

I'm looking to bundle them and 1031 exchange them into a larger property.  

To achieve this, I’m planning to scale rapidly by performing a couple of syndications to acquire a larger portfolio.I currently have a portfolio of 17 properties, but to justify labor costs and create a sustainable structure, I need to expand quickly.

If the costs for home buying goes up for first time home buyers then the results will probably be that less starter homes will be moving in the market unless non profits and the sort step up.

JC’s lenient approach is definitely a draw for investors looking to avoid the red tape that’s becoming more common in larger cities.

By working for a larger corporation you are gaining an unfair advantage, by letting them train and develop you (while you are getting paid) and you do real estate on the side.This idea is not from me, read RichDad.
