That said, they all bought a few years ago at least so looking at their cash flow is not an apples to apples comparison if you're buying at today's prices.

Purchase price: $300,000 Cash invested: $10,500 My first investment.

You can decide how much cash you want to pull out so you are still cash flowing. 

The deal itself was only mediocre cash flowing about $400/month.

@Ali S.What's the monthly cash flow for each of these properties? 

I drive a 95 nissan pick-up, Paid for, good milege Why spend 50k on a fancy car that will go down in value ( not counting collector vehicles) I would rather spent 50k on a down payment on more real estate for more cash flow

I realize that selling a cash flowing rental is open to criticism.

Purchase price: $690,000 Cash invested: $300,000 6/6 two family detach house in HOA at 77 monthly.

Very quick and simple read that boils down the importance of investing in cash flowing assets such as real estate.

If you can positive cash with today's interest rates, and you buy in a growth market, then you'll have a winner.
