I have straight cash and a line of credit.

I now live in Salt Lake City, Utah, but born in South Central, California, so any ideas or investors or have useful information I would love to know and see how I can be any value into your success as well.Thanks for comments ahead of time

I have a potential condo I am looking to invest in and think given the low rates, may make sense to go ahead with a mortgage .

It was relatively straight forward to be honest.

Advertisement - I'm going to be self managing this property, and seeing as how I will need to do some light remodeling my agent recommend I go ahead and put a "for rent" sign out front just to start advertising it.

I also got ahead of myself and opened a HELOC on the property for capital on new projects, so I can't sell for a few years. 

If you live “below your means” by renting a place below your housing allowance, you come out ahead.

Just a heads up long post.

We figure though that if the house is 50 plus years old  (some are nearly 100 years) and they are still standing straight, that they will still be standing when we are gone so no need to go looking for problems. 

I feel that even if/when the bubble pops, and the value of my property decreases, I will still be coming out ahead in quite a few ways - 1 - I will eliminate or minimize my monthly rent/housing costs2 - I may/should be able to (?)
