This one broke the ice to keep me going to my next property.

Then you can include what you have to offer as icing on the cake.

The icing on the cake it's a less risky way too invest because you don't have to take a single dollar of debt!

Hi Christopher, I personally look at KPI’ s like cash flow first and only consider appreciation as icing on the cake.

I set my deal up so that the cash flow would exceed my down payment by the end of the term, ensuring me a profit, and any appreciation if I decide to purchase would be icing on the cake.

Basically your tenants save money for you by paying your mortgage. and then the real icing on the cake...appreciation.

When there is once again free-grazing cattle, widespread lowland forests, and barley in Greenland, we will have achieved the global temperatures that are more normal of the Holocene as a whole and will have finally recovered from the Little Ice Age. 

We tried keeping them open for ice fishing, but it wasn't worth the hassle. 

We try to ensure the salt is applied enough to keep down dangerous/slippery ice and to keep the snow melted, but we don't want to go overkill having a "zero tolerance" ice policy like hospitals have, we just want to keep snow and ice down to an acceptable and safe level, without going over-budget.For some of our buildings where salt seems to be really deteriorating surfaces (mainly building sidewalks and masonry stairs) we thought about using a different product (either calcium chloride or magnesium chloride) however while they are less damaging than pure salt, they are also more expensive (something we are trying to avoid).What do you other landlords do that have midsize (10+ unit) buildings? 

Kitchen was a melted ice cream mess.
