If you earn $100K a year, then education and license maintenance is peanuts.  

Factoring in self maintenance (eating/showering/gym/shower/caring for dog/ect), thats another 3-4 hoursI went to a local REI networking event recently and marketing for properties was talked about.  

Granted, this does not sound like a lot, but when you take into account that I used to pay somebody else $600/month for rent, and now I pretty much get “free rent” in Unit 4, that bumps my monthly economic increase per month to $885 ($10,620 per year) less repairs, maintenance, vacancies, advertising, etc.

So as you compare, don't forget taxes, insurance, vacancy, maintenance, and property management.  

Now I have a team of maintenance guys, plumbers and have a lot of pending application and I started looking for more properties but now I want to rehab and flip but unfortunately I can not find any good deal .

What if a large maintenance issue comes up.

The bank will need to know if your lease(s) will cover the PITI + other associated costs (vacancy, maintenance, etc)Thanks,Sean

Well I bought an office in a condominium - The tenant decided to stay  and I really like the fact that  the condo takes care of the outside and all I have to take care is the bathroom ( there is no kitchen )  - So unless the toilet breaks it is maintenance free.

You get to walk away with $30,000 cash, and you are no longer responsible for maintenance and other holding fees, and the property is held as collateral if the mortgage is failed to be paid.
