By owning income-generating properties, investors create a steady stream of passive income, freeing them from traditional jobs.

Oh I see renting...again check other rental listings in the local area to see what other landlords are offering but we only provide stove in our area...as a mom who does a ton of laundry and has kids, I don't want to use anyone else's w/d or fridge unless it is brand new so I allow my tenants to bring/buy their own or rent from me (extra revenue stream).

Otherwise these ''blood suckers'' will suck you dry.

But from what I have heard and read, these are guaranteed payment streams. 

Account ClosedI might add that the counties/municipalities are like sharks - once they smell blood they won't relent.  

If/when I move to FL, there will be a due diligence period where I will be looking at various cash flow streams for an area and see which ones make most sense.

I am also in the Army National Guard, which is another stream of income.

There is a time and place for it, but you probably should not do this unless you have significant income coming in from other investments/income streams to cover the difference. 

They convince the warm blooded victim of several things playing in simple psychology, feeding self worth, greed, ego and aspirations of success. 

This property yours your blood, sweat and tears, why not analyze a few more things before putting all that hard work into a strangers hands?
