Good Luck on your Future Real Estate Investments!

It is tempting to think of exotic locations when it is all a future goal.

@Alvin SylvainI'm a new investor and only have one rental but for my future purchases I'm looking for at least 10% cash on cash return.

Also others have mentioned this also puts a cloud or something on title because even if you sell the property or transfer it to a new owner, the new owner cannot rent the units until after the allotted time based on the eviction reason.If you can purchase a property at a below market rate and evict the tenant for a few thousand dollars and sustain the cost of holding the property, then yes you're going to have some long term appreciation and potential rental gains. 

I was unaware of this terminology but am glad you shared it so I am a little better prepared for future discussions.

These aren't issues that are specific to flipping and should be a primary focus for any real estate investment - The bottom line is that you made a profit despite the challenges you faced - and congratulations for that - but it seems to the bystander that you gambled with another investor's money while investing very little of your own - you put yourself in the position of a teacher or mentor when in fact you are not extremely experienced in the business of flipping - consider how you would feel if you lost a portion of your partner's investment....Today I am closing on the purchase of my 15th flip for the year, and I wouldn't dream of taking on an investment partner who wasn't equally experienced and had an equal say in the decision process.Good Luck with your future projects and Happy Investingjeff 

I have been doing a very slow crawl (while I clean up past financial mistakes & save cash for future successes) to get into the investment side, but have been working to gather some priceless experience along the way.We purchased our first home in 2005 and that became our very first rental in 2009!

At some point in the future you *might* own it.

To address the fee %, I later read the 6% recommend after posting, so I will ensure that for the future.
