It isn't purely a landlord item as people flip properties or do BRRRR rehabs often before renting them.

They’re now on track to gross $300k this year - literally double (and remember that most of that is pure profit since they’ve already paid their mortgage and other fixed costs).

So from a pure investment standpoint, it might have been a better option.On the upside, I hit some great timing on the following items:1)  Reduction of local taxes in San Jose to build the ADU. 

Then you can think of RE purely as an investment. 

I made a ton more off of my rent growth and appreciation than I would have if I picked an area purely based on the cash flow.

I normally shot for minimum of $200 per door as monthly “Pure Cash-Flow”.Equity is what really makes people money/fortune in Real Estate Investing.

Any numbers provided would be purely anecdotal.

I can’t say that we could look at it purely as an investment if we are going to be able to use it personally.

Based purely on the numbers, would you buy this?

Surely that's worth three Gs I heard pure Gold idea on a BP podcast.
