My goal in real estate is to gain my freedom - own my time 100% to do what I like daily and enjoy my life. 

In my area, rent can never be with held unless it is a life safety issue I.e., the building is not habitable.  

I think this question is more salient for those who will need to sell due to age, life timing.

A 1% deal that's $300k will out perform a $50k 2% deal all day in real life.

You can do this as a private individual from your personal page but I think a business page is better just to keep your personal life separated.I advertise rentals all the time on facebook and it generates a lot of traffic for me.

I am a contractor in this market and used to be in the real estate investment business several years ago until life took a different direction.

Cash flow is the life blood of real estate, and as a wise man once said, "You can't eat equity."

yes, agency debt usually comes with 10-13 year life, and you may need a golden ticket to qualify.

Surround yourself with people that have great goals and ambition in life - especially if real estate is the route you decide to go down, and it will work wonders for you.1.

Separations were clearly made over the life of the property but everything appears to be in sound order.
