However if the choice is equity build up or cash reserve build up, cash reserves win every time. 

What I particularly love about having properties in Boise is that residents by and large love to be here, and many have arrived here strictly for a lifestyle choice. 

@Lakeisha Black the #s might work but if I have a choice then I'm always going with 3 or 4 bedroom homes because you increase the size of potential tenants who will rent from you.

You have a couple choices one would be the air test if your lender will accept it.

@Ryan Pomerening you still need to contact that lawyer about the answer to this question as this is no legal advice, just an opinion of what I would do.I would get a copy of the existing lease and bring that with me to an attorney and ask the attorney for an agreement to voluntarily end a lease early. 

What determines the success or failure of your choice is luck, your level of understanding, and your passion for it.If real estate is a goal simply to diversify, it doesn't have to be a primary business for you. 

No other choice.

I've also been thinking about partnering up, but am unsure how to go about it safely or if it is even a good choice.
