When one is purchased, it also comes with a share or stock of the corporation which is worth a certain amount.

Hi Nichole,We aren't really dead set on any  type of property,  we are kust planning to pull thr trigger when something catches our eye.In the four or five towns that we are focused on, i would say that less than 5% of the options are small multi family.  

I have looked at various investments, from the stock market to P2P leanding, to REIT's, etc...  

Anyone have any thoughts on how to get more information on tower leasing or is it a dead end?

We also improved the house with custom closets, landscaping, curtain rods, additional cabinets, fencing the back yard...We also lived below our means so we could buy stocks.We participated in an employee discount stock purchase plan.  

(most of our Milwaukee housing stock is built in the 50s and many sewer lines have never been cleaned, so we do it as a precaution...)

That is a serious negative cash flow investment property.If you can finance the property to the maximum amount and achieve positive cash flow plus invest the cash in other properties it will be worth holding otherwise you should sell immediately and reinvest elsewhere.As a investor you need to understand that leaving cash dead and buried in a income property is a poor business decision.

Like I said if you wish to spend the money on travel expenses, etc. those will be your personal expenses, not expenses of an IRA.Think of it as buying a stock of a company.

Investing, even in stocks/mutual funds/almost anything is very rare, and met with surprise when talked about.
