Your 5 year CAGR may increase, depending on your assumptions for appreciation, with lower leverage, and you may find 40% to be the sweet spot in various analyses. 

Those are sweet!

But I have cap ex reserves and a fully funded acquisition account already.I wouldn't rush out to accelerate sweet, long-term residential mortgages in the 3s and 4s unless I was close to losing PMI.  

makes no sense to sell early in my opinion- sweet spot is 8-10 years when cash flow wipes out ltv leverage, the whole time still maintaining usage and tax advantages. if your looking for that big payday on a quick then sell if you are a balanced long term investor stay in, milk it and 8-9 years dump it to maximize tax implications and sell and reinvest in another.Personally, my kids will end up dealing with our portfolio because we wont end up selling.we have 20 and sold one and regretted ever since.

@Krista Moreno I must say this is very sweet of you, and I appreciate the human factor in it.

@David Rende Short and sweet of it, there is no way to further reduce tax liability by any moving around or paying yourself. 

But that is just deferred and not a sweet as tax-free.

I'm a newly single mom (35 years old) to a sweet baby girl who just turned 1.

Property taxes and insurance are a direct hit on the bottom line.Dependable passive income properties are affordable - The current sweet spot for single-family and townhouse investment properties is between $320,000 and $475,000.Low maintenance cost - Las Vegas properties have low maintenance costs due to the construction materials required by the Mojave Desert's climate.

@WIne Phu Pwint-Phiansin, This is probably the most important calculation and comparison an investor has to make.
