I bought a house in Spokane, lived in it for about 3 months but had to return to Tucson. 

Her motivation was to be done with the long distance headache and any money that she realized from the sale was like "bonus" money to her (similar to how folks often view their tax returns as "free" or "bonus" money).

Hello everyone, I'm looking to get my first single family rental property soon and was hoping to get some advice.I was planning on borrowing a 20% down payment along with rehab costs from my mom and giving her a 12% return on whatever she lends me.

They sent a check for rent past the 60 day notice which I immediately returned.

Property this close to the city is limited.Using an online calculator I found and assuming the property appreciates 3% per year and the after tax return on reinvestment if I sell is 5%, I’d still make $120k after 20 years if I rent.

Historically the best return would be achieved by keeping the property.

These products usually move a little more slowly than a fixed asset so they can be great fail safe identifications for a 45 day identification list.The biggest obstacles to these in general are unrealistic investor expectation of return in the wholely owned sector.
