Of course this is assuming the entire amortization schedule is paid as agreed.For performing assets yield is a great metric because you are taking the entire cash-flow stream into account.In instances where you are creating value then selling or otherwise liquidating the asset, ROI may be more beneficial. 

I thought at some point it would be good to refinance into a 15 year mortgage but that was a waste of money as I wanted the larger stream of cash flow.

My main goal is to build high quality, predictable passive income streams for the long term.  

Kinda like the movie "parasite "We all will "lose" our jobs one day.

I have a couple VRBOs and a hunting cabin in Northern Minnesota and am wondering if this would be a good passive income stream for an extremely long term (generations) buy and hold investment.You can buy red pine stands (10-40 years old) for $1200-$1500 per acre.

Sometimes I think it would better to just deploy all of the 1031 movies into another multi unit for sake that is not in an opportunity zone, you get a larger tax break that way

(said jokingly You could buy him tickets to a double feature at the local movie theatre, so he's out of the unit while the work is done!)

Someone mentioned 8k to 12k closing costs.The cost to buy a triple net property ARE WAY MORE than that.30 year amortizations are generally reserved for MTNL (retails strip centers) with multiple tenants for the income stream as they are underwritten by lenders differently than STNL.I have seen a few times when lenders would do a 30 year amortization for STNL schedule but LTV was really low like 30 or 40% so putting 60 to 70% down.

I want to use real estate investing to diversify my savings and develop passive income streams, and hope to have fun and learn as much as I can in the process!

I looked at the local market which is rising prices here in the northern VA/DC metropolitan area TH,SF 450k + it is rising. my goal as a full time employee is to invest passively to have multiple stream of income to replace my day job which is IT. here is my dilemma, I have not bought my first time primary home so the goal was to buy rentals while I am living low rent.scenerio 1.Buy my first primary home around northern VA since the major companies (amazon) are moving in and house hack.
