And for those who are in their 30s and think they will retire with paid off rentals, don't forget to factor in the following:Maintenance, taxes and insuranceDepreciation for your heirs to repayUsually good appreciation at first and then slowing in later years,,,why followsEconomic devaluation due to properties maturingChanges in demographics of the community, hot areas don't stay hotCompetition of comparable units and and newer unitsDecline due to obsolesence, may not command rising rents foreverMaintenance issues deferred become rehab projects years laterTax benefits die outGovernmental regulations adopted may cause additional expensesVariable costs increase- with stagnet rents (ie, taxes and insurance)Property becomes inefficient and functionally obsolesent in the market.Buying a 15 year old SFD when you are 30 and keeping it till you are 65 gives you a 50 year old property......now go into neighborhoods with 50 year old properties and see what the market is like inthose older areas.......I suggest you buy, do a 1031 or sell and upgrade your inventories.
