If it will cost you considerably more in the future and loss of appreciation, lose of tax writeoffs and lose of cash flow in the meanwhile, than the amount of debt you are paying off, how does that put you ahead? 

What's your goal - cash flow or appreciation?

Which city would be the best investment for 2024 among Little Rock, AR, Atlanta, GA, and Nashville, TN for a buy-and-hold strategy aimed at long-term appreciation?

Trust when I say it gets much deeper than a day late.

I appreciate the feedback and that sounds like a good plan.

Hi everyone,I'm currently negotiating a real estate deal and would appreciate some advice on how favorable this offer sounds:Price: $3,170,000.0017 units50% down payment5% interest rateBalloon payment in 3 to 5 yearsThey're open to either interest-only payments or an amortized loan structureAdditionally, I'm trying to secure the best financing option available.How does this deal compare to the current market?

With a note (while you can force appreciation by converting from non-performing to performing) you won't see any other appreciation, taxed at regular income rates, and lowered equity over the course of the payment schedule and it looks to me that you are only investing for cash flow. 

Wall Street thought we were going to get six- eight rate reductions this year we’ve seen none so far and stagflation is setting in , the Fed is trapped , if they reduce rates now , inflation could catch on fire if they increase them again too much something in the economy will break I think we’re in this holding pattern for one to two years personally, I don’t claim to be a macro economic expert, but I do study it quite a bit and I’m not counting on or expecting rates to come down anytime soon and even if they do, they’ll just be small quarter-point rate hikes not enough to make a huge difference in cashflow, so ..I either hold and if they do decrease rates, there will  probably be another asset inflation bubble, which will increase my appreciation, or my cell and deploy the capital more wisely and look for some market softening and buy a good deal
