I personally have not invested in a property like this before.

So the way I see it it's person's situation specific, as well as properties you have in your portfolio specific vs a specific amount.Good Luck!

Personally, I would go after base hits 

@Katelin UhinckIf the commute is an issue you could buy a property that cashflows to go toward personal expenses and still have the long term benefits of having renters pay off the mortgage.

@Brian Willie personally i would not do this. 

Personally, I think curb appeal is low on the list for MTR success.

Personally, I rent out properties that I personally would live in- and I carefully screen my tenants.

If the person or service is fantastic, there is potential for A LOT of business (~160 turns per year).

@Ashley DennisI think people should consider owning real estate personally (tax benefits) and inside of their retirement account. 

What they said^^^^No obtaining a permit for a structure that will be a habitable dwelling is just plain stupid... sorry - nothing personal.
