this way, if you have to pick up $500 of the expenses but in one year - you can purchase another 3 unit property and rent the one you were living in for $1100 - then BAM - you know with pretty good certainty that the first property will be cashflowing for a roughly $600 profit (or in the black).then you live in a unit in the second property and hopefully can come close to breaking even...however - this can be a real pain in the buttocks...the bottom line is you want to avoid properties that don't cash flow, unless you're an experienced investor and bank on quick appreciation values (speculative investing).

If I discovered someone pitching a bogus property to me - they would go on my BLACK LIST (never do business with them) for life.

You also must check out the Black Diamond event that is in Waltham (2nd location in Worcester as well) that @Ann Bellamy is one of the founders of.There is also the Boston Area REIA which would be the other super close one for you.

The plumbing could have lead supply lines and galvanized supply lines, and the waste lines could be clay, "Orangeburg" (Black coal-tar impregnated fiber piping), and even cast iron waste can develop cracks especially if the lines go unused for long periods.

Up to then they were enforceable in California based on a California Supreme court decision and neighbors made sure they were enforced so agents would check the status when they took a listing and include it in the MLS information.I did have a black friend that wanted to buy in a mixed race area but that particular property had the restriction.

FYI: I rant the numbers using a 70% rule and it still came out in the black.
