James Meyer Pay off mortgage through TSP

With no income...just cost.How many months would it take to recover $60k...which is what you need to do before you show any profit...and before you mention appreciation, you get the same appreciation whether you pay this way or the minimum.At $18k/y cf (after payoff), it will take you over 3 additional years before you start making a profit...that's actually close to 8 years from when you start the early payoff.B - If you put 20% down (about $24k), that was cash, and you had positive cf (on average) for the full term (let's say 20 more years), the cost of this property to you was $24k.If you had $500 positive CF without doing this early payoff, or $6k/year, you would have broken even at the end of year 4...and you would be profiting.Let the tenant buy the house for you.

The wholesaler is simply selling paper - it's up to you to take the deal and monetize it.I recently did a wholesale deal with an investor who completely screwed it up - instead of him making a quick 10k profit he decided to slowplay the thing by dragging his feet, taking 4 months to paint a 1200 ft SFR to end up walking away with only $3200.
