There would be three adults and 3 very good indoor cats. 

Somewhere that you can build a relationship with a decision maker at the bank and you're not just another number to them.

I learned to find and make real estate deals from Pete Vekselman and Jeff Warneke (his then partner) back in the early 2000's.  

She is going to verify actually numbers & her interest rate & payments.Insurance- $160Taxes- $86Principal/Interest- $710@Jason Hirko house was repaired to make rent ready.

For your model, 1% appreciation on real estate seems quite low.Re: taxes, if held in a taxable account and using current tax laws, you have a lot of deductions each year (property taxes, interest on your mortgage, depreciation, etc) that can make real estate a very tax efficient investment so your true after tax return may be higher than a stock account depending on if you are using indexing or trading frequently.

When local authorities advised the use of N95 respirator masks and encouraged people not to go outside unless they had to, we followed suit and handed out face masks to our tenants and passed along the advisory to stay indoors during the days when the air quality was poor.4.

I am looking for a mixed property where I can have small amount of retail, warehouse space, and an area for indoor sporting practices. 

I wouldn't consider that shady as she responded pretty quickly.Is she the only decision maker for the estate?

It's nice to tell a lender to stuff it but if you want to talk then lets talk, here's what we want, pass it on to the decision makers..

For most folks, though, that would not make real wealth.I also would say I do not consider my own residence an investment.
