I recall every time I needed to pay a bill, having to fill out another form. 

We also have ability to access to home equity lines of credit from both my rental property (has 500k or more of equity) and a smaller amount of equity on our primary home.

While I'm trying to teach myself to be more handy, there are some projects that are beyond my abilities.

Hi @Alexander Hunter,many developing countries have property rights and corruption issues, You just can't invest where population growth really will be (Nigeria, Egypt, Indonesia). 

you can have a great property. but the Sewer main line is 2 miles away and you need a pump station or two.. this is where bonds are perfect.. and were in our state it stymies growth since you cant front end load the project with that much offsite.. you do get some SDC credits but you got to have the big money up front to do it then wait to get paid back with no interest.  

East Atlanta has already seen a good portion of its growth IMO (Reynoldstown, Edgewood, Peoplestown, etc.).

I've sent her a dozen or so prop's based on my very amateur analysis and she has diligently whittled those down to three or four, based on her best advice regarding the neighborhood, rent-ability, etc. 

In other words, what you buy at is typically the floor, and while the growth rate is slower than you'd like it it will always be on a steady uptrend.
