Those who produce values--including real estate investors should not be regarded as objects of disgust.

(use any investment calculator for the latter).You might find out that saving 100K in mortgage repayments costs you a couple million dollars in opportunity cost.Again there are situations where mortgage paydown makes sense, they are just hard to objectively describe to anyone who is trying to grow a portfolio of buy and hold rental property.

Sarah,There are several self directed IRA specialists on this site.

@Howard Gorman if least amount of risk and headache are your main objectives it seems like selling would be the best option.

You shall never pour cooking grease or other damaging/obstructing objects down toilets, sinks or drains.

Originally posted by @Zee Ayezain: Thanks Mary, so you keep the garbage disposal but add a basket strainer effectively eliminated the option of having something go down the drain into the disposal I am not sure about my tenants, but at my house it keeps things like pennines and other metal objects from accidentally falling down the drain - but when I want to wash something down the drain i lift the basket out.  

My objective is not cash flow at the moment...I'm merely planting trees for the future. 

Have a borrower in BK and we filed post petition fees for proof of claim and a plan objection (since they originally did not include property in BK).

However, I am also looking for long term value appreciation, in addition to decent cashflow and I wonder if the 'turnkey investing' model has any A or B class properties to realize that objective.

Most importantly it they did not even suggest they would tie the end of the moratorium to anything objective.
