Since Ive been looking at loans, it appears that if I was to buy say a single unit for the purpose as an investment to rent out, I would need 20% down... but if I was buying the unit as my primary residence You can qualify for a MUCH lower down payment depending on your income. 

When comparing loan options, the calculator says a 15 year loan at 4.75 percent would be a -182% cash on cash roi, while a 30 year loan with the same interest rate and same terms is a +94% cash on cash roi. 

Finding your purpose in life is the true blessing I thInk.

For all intents and purposes, the Rectory looks and funtuons similar to our row of houses.My other neighbor (let's call him Eddie) and I were informed by the priest last weekend that the Rectory will need to be sold soon because of a lack of financing coming in from the school.

Although in our line of work we are very equity heavy compared to income properties which can be leveraged 75% these days ??? 

The house I'm trying to compare to was built in 1935.
