Though this method assumes cash flows from amortization are recognized in the year the occur, which we know not to be the case, so this method is also flawed. 

Charleston is simply a winner.. but the great part of it is its not a BP area.reason prices are a little to high for all the buy and hold cash flow folks who think appreciation is gambling.. so you don't have the masses in there competing.. so that's the good news.. our cash flow since we got there has been 500 to 1 million a year LOL.. and not ONE rental..

The only time I've ever done longer than a 12 month lease was with a tenant who I had a long history with, who I trusted, and who had verifiable reasons to stay at the property for more than 12 months (she had a job in the neighborhood that had an 18 month contract)...a long lease can be great if it's an A+ tenant you know well and trust, but a long lease with an unknown tenant is a gamble... 

But... from what I gather, not all states (including WI, where I intend to purchase properties) have laws or cases that recognize Series LLCs or "cells" within a Series LLC.

I also recognize that we've had the wind at our backs with a rising market for nearly a decade.

@Adriel WattsWait a minute, how did your PM not recognize the possibility that the Type X drywall on your garage ceiling could fail?

Investors who recognize and capitalize on opportunities might thrive even in uncertain times.Real estate investments might be a great way to generate passive income and build long-term wealth.

I firmly believe there's always opportunity wherever we are, we just may not always recognize it.With that being said, yes there are certain markets that have great growth metrics and are widely known as some of the top investing markets but ultimately you need to decide on a market and location that makes the most sense to you.As of right now I've only invested in Arizona.

See - that's why you are @J Scott :)Newbies listen up: it is important to recognize all of the value centers in a particular proposition.

Don't include photos of the outside of the home or photos that she will quickly recognize.
