I sent them a check for their deposit less expenses but they have not cashed it or returned any calls or email.

Many investors believe in holding property to maximize returns.

Got the complete run around without any return calls.

- I can provide payslips and bank stmts plus tax returns if need be.

Yes, I bought it at about 20-30% fmv but regardless, it is a piece of real estate that garners no cashflow for me, thus no return, which is why I have always lived in my least performing asset while renting out the rest....

You find, negotiate and manage the investments, and your "silent" partner splits the returns with you.

Campbell, what will soon be a "super base", Upon the closing of 2 military installations... as well as the return of 80000 troops from Iraq and Afghanistan in the next 6 months.

I'd like to know what the return is on an washer and dryer.

With props usually renting out at between 500 and 900 per month, Returns are always above 10% but trickle in the mid 20's meaning you can have your money back in 5 years tops and if you decide not to hold onto them long term, you could sell them when the market turns around for huge gains...

IMO if you can't do 99% of your own work your returns will be greatly reduced.
