Its tough to get cash flow right now unless you are buying in Midwest markets.

I have mentioned a few times on BP For all these folks trying to bust into the business but need to make money this is a great way to learn details and make cash without having to spend much if any money other than a computer scanner printer phone. 

Seems like if the vacancy ratios are low STR would be the only way to cash flow on that type of debt and $1500 for an HOA could be a mortgage on a duplex!

If the law does not, I'd offer them cash for keys, or not renew their lease. 

I did a cash out refinance and escrow closed today.

However, now that we are exploring real estate more I was considering paying off the mortgage earlier to have more cash each month to invest elsewhere.

You could essentially put the whole amount in escrow if you have access to those funds at the moment. 

I am curious about how he comes up with the number. . . . the formula goes NWROI = (cash flow & rent savings + loan paydown + appreciation)/ Initial Investment So, if you have a low initial investment - it looks good on paper.

Seriously, in big picture say someone is willing to rent you a home on 99yr lease for $1.00yr, that you can rent for $2k mnth, are you gonna say no because you MUST hold title, must have that paperwork to it in the way you want it.From my vision, arguing how that paperwork is done is like saying you refuse to accept a truck-load of cash if the truck isn't blue in color.
