I think the issue stems from generational poverty, people not seeing or knowing differently.  

Let's say you can get this 4-plex for $100k today and it is generating gross rents of $1,200 per month.

So if you pick up a $675k property, all-in, you're going to want to be generating absolutely no less than $6,750 per month in rental income.

on there for the mean time to generate enough CF to service most of it..

But I know how to make the numbers work, and I've created a lead generation foundation that I can build on as long as I'm in RE.

Its not costing you any $$$ to hold and has great upside.I would hold this one and focus on other ways to generate $$$ and continue building.Just my 0.2 :)Thanks for reading and have a great day.

However, you must market in order to generate leads.

And that, if it didn't generate any interest, you would not be able to buy it. 

If a property generates 2% of purchase price in gross monthly rent, and if my expenses/vacancy/capex equal about 50% of gross rents, then I'm generating about 1% of purchase price in net monthly rent.
