I only have 1 of my early fights on the internet.

I only wish my Micro and Macro Economics professors had the insight and sense of humor this guy does.

.- Putting 20% down- Planning to rent it out (will be negative about $200 a month)- I'm hoping for long term appreciation- It's not a fixer upper.

I'm sorry once again to come off in a negative or fraudulent light.

I read it over and can't really see how that could have been taken negatively. ??

I have after tax dollars sitting in a stock brokerage account.So my choice is today, do I buy more stocks , or do I buy a good almost positive , currently negative cash flow property, in what I believe is the best market in the country.Northern Virginia is exploding with Jobs and population, the federal government is just spending money like a drunken sailor.I have to pick my poison, stocks or real estate. 90% of my current wealth is in stocks/cash right now.

Basically what I did was a debt snowball, if you don't know what that is let me know, and started whacking those mortgages.Let's assume that I only saved ONE HALF of what I would have paid in interest.

I have worked with most of my contractors for years and some of them are independents and need money up front to buy supplies, but I only do that with contractors I have experience with.

Sometimes you have a positive cash flow but it can become negative because of this process.

(This means that if they do find a buyer in the future, then you have a right to match the offer and buy the building.)Negatives for you:Price may be higher in the future.You may not be able to buy that building in the future.Positives for owners:The owners will have a building worth more because it is performing.The owners will be making money monthly, instead of losing it.Negatives for owners:They lose the chance to matket for owner users.They may not want to deal with negotiating and managing a lease.Option 2:See if the owners will finance some or all of the sale to you.Positives for you:You get the building now.Negatives for you:It will likely be more expensive than a bank loan.
