After that I still have enough credit to squeeze out an inexpensive ( less than $100,000) property or two through traditional financing before switching to different techniques.There are some banks that will allow you to use your rental property income as part of your personal income sooner than three years.

I would take that based on potential rent including what your unit would fetch.Your monthly rent should be $3,000... figure $1,500 in expenses before paying your mortgage.

I live in Raleigh currently near the Crabtree Valley neighborhood because it's extremely inexpensive and in a really great location close to my husband's office.As far as investing goes, I'm looking in other areas near NC State University, West Downtown, Central Raleigh, East Raleigh (but it really varies block to block...), North Hills, and some other small pockets.

High quality renters, as well as potential buyers, will continue to be priced out of the downtown Boston/Cambridge/Somerville markets, and this should drive solid price appreciation in Malden as folks flock here as a relatively inexpensive place to live where you can still work downtown and take public transportation. 

It is NOT just an 8% property management fee either, it is familiarity with the market, being able to locate deals, being able to manage renovations, not getting ripped off on repair costs,being able to verify that everything is running as it should be & being able to quickly diagnose/fix when it isn't, not suffering from high turn over from poor tenant screening & management, not spending a fortune on airfare to fix issues, and generally not being 100% reliant on others who may or may not have your best interests at heart to make the investment work.On the other hand, if you study things this way and compare multiple markets, you will see that places that have inexpensive property and high initial cash flow do NOT have high appreciation.

They are often very inexpensive and allow consultations with local attorneys.
