Imo they are kinda a sweet spot and great place start.

@Mike Williams  Hi Mike,I think the fastest way for you to get 4,000 monthly income off 100k is to buy rentals under market value, and then find a bank that will allow you to cash out refinance, preferably with no appraisal, just electronic value under a year. 

;PHave a nice day and heat is needed in the cold spot of your house where the pipes are freezing.

Maybe it's out of my "sweet" spot. 

I feel we're in a great spot given the equity, cash flow and not having a mortgage. 

Duplexes are harder to make cash flow, so your sweet spot is really the 4 unit buildings.

Hey guys, just wondering if any of you know for certain if electronic storage could cause a potential liability risk?

There's about a 5 business day delay between the tenant making the payment and it posts to my bank account, but I don't need to money immediately anyway and it's free.I've also used Quickbooks invoicing but they have a select list of banks they can draw from and if the tenant doesn't use one of those banks, it's back to check payments.Pros: Both Cozy and Quickbooks can also be used to manage expensesCons: one of my old tenants refuses to give online companies 'electronic access to her checking account' so she just sends me a check still and I use mobile deposits with my bank.

Aside from showing up unannounced, I’m just trying to see what electronically is available.

Noticed that there are a lot of listings even in spots not zoned for any type of commercial activity at all.
