@Brad E.It seems like you hit most of the pros and cons.Some other things I would consider include ease of selling the properties in the future.

@Brad E.Try using the XIRR function in excel instead of IRR

I would recommend setting  up a retainer with @Brad Schaeppi and scheduling a phone call.

@Brad Schaeppi thank you for all the great advice!

@Brad Farber @Jay Dertzbaugh @Dawn Brenengen @Adam Schneider @Llewelyn A.

Hello Brad, we buy all of our appliances from Spencers. 

@Brad Braun thank me for taking the time to explain the pros and cons of the business.

Invest in real estate by investing Long Distance in a 50k multifamily in Kansas that will be about $200 cash flow positive/month..Pros- Be able to keep a short commute to work- Live in the heart of Manhattan while paying no rent- Low cash deposit to begin investing in property.Cons- Run the risk of my land lord not allowing AirBnBs (which could be mitigated by upfront communication)- Investing long distance for my first deal is terrifying- I won't be able to use an FHA loan on my first property.Concerns:Am I opening myself up to too much risk by signing an apartment lease and a mortgage?  

Dear Lord please stop giving this article more hits.
