Here is my opinion so far:US:- 30yr fixed principle repayment mortgage, so actually build equity assuming 0 appreciation- rates around 4.2% right now (also get a small discount through work)- first 4 properties 20% down, then 25%- can deduct all expenses plus depreciation- I have a large liability in USD (student loan) so would be good to have a USD cash flow and avoid FX riskUK:- interest only mortgages with 3-5% fixed rates for 3-5 years...then need to refinance (which can be expensive and unpredictable...also interest only so relying on appreciation)- however, interest only improves the cash flow significantly as the mortgage amounts are tiny- 25%+ down- slightly less tax friendly, it seems- much less space, higher population density and growth...points to higher average appreciation potentialDoes anyone have any thoughts?
