Its what I am all about and was born and raised in a farming family.

Hi Art,I was born and raised here and yes, that is pretty normal.

In the end the "A-Team" is born, the trust is there, and investing gets easier.

@Matt WoodsI was born and raise Delco (Delaware County).

I'm a dual citizen, born in Calgary.

All of the traps in the bathroom have water in them.

I have also been managing the maintenance on about 10 rental properties for a friend of mine who now resides in Chicago.My old man was a successful realtor/investor/small builder in our area for many years when i was young, so i was kind of born into the business.

I couldn't get enough and have bought and read a couple of the BP books as well.I was born and raised in Hawaii where the weather is nice and the land is limited. 

I don’t know your area, but I imagine something like another duplex would provide a better return.Don’t fall into the trap of considering the ‘cost’ to be what you paid as opposed to the mkt value you could sell it for. 

The current owner may have fallen into the trap of having residents stay for many years without any changes to their rent.
