this may take a little longer, but in the long run, the tenants will pay for the mortgages, but I would have acquired more properties in a short span.2.

Hi BP,As I'm getting closer to raising the funds for and acquiring my first apartment property, I'd like to hear the bad and the ugly of your experiences and what you LEARNED from them.We usally her the good and the successes, but we learn most from failures.

Understanding and negotiating commercial leases is a whole separate body of knowledge to acquire or hire.Depending on the terms of the commercial leases and the local apartment market I would build in a vacancy factor to the NOI.

I recently acquired a 2 story cinderblock building.

I have had success in investing in condos in South Beach, but it was all about timing.....they were acquired on the rebound from the real estate crash in a buyer's market/ Now prices for condos in South Beach are skyrocketing and the capital appreciation has been well worth the investment, even though the cash flow wasn't great (but still positive) over the years!

Acquire property's that cash-flow a substantial amount of money, giving me the freedom to live a lifestyle free of employment.

I had been working on a very conservative business plan including acquiring some buy & hold and looking for opportunities to flip/fix or wholesale over the next several years.

When I say "adjacent", I mean it actually borders the larger parcel on two sides and would be the key to acquiring an additional .3 acre parcel on the other side of my lot to fill out the rectangle of the development.The property is very convenient to a prestigious local university and hospital.

I have an offer from a person who wants to acquire my condo using a land contract.

My strategy so far to is to acquire rental properties in order to have passive income through retirement.I look forward to speaking with everyone.
