@Curt Smith is right on the money with his numbers and concept.

I have a small house down the street that has served as a display but now i need to make decisions on how to execute to finalize the proof of concept.

I have some questions about developing a lot for a fast casual concept next to a McDonalds. 

@Bradley Adams, the problem as I see it is that once you highly leverage your bay (or any A class) properties, the concept of them giving you positive cash flow goes out the window. 

I still don't really understand this concept.

Annual cash on cash returns of 10 % are very achievable (typical quarterly payouts) and through a concept called forced appreciation total returns + 20% over 5 yr hold periods are achievable.I prefer MF becsuse people need to live somewhere, I make one decision every 5yrs. 

As I become more familiar with the many different concepts that are discussed within these fourums, I hope to contribute much more.  

This will serve as a great way to reinforce certain concepts, behaviors or thought process. 

We buy it in 2015, finish the house (basically a new build) very simple but modern 900 sq ft. ranch, vaulted ceilings, open concept central air, nice high end rental grade finishes like ceramic tile floor.  

Hi Dexter, the concept you are describing is fairly common and I think could be very successful.
