Risk Management Vs. Return on Investment
What is more important to you as an investor today when buying a property for long-term buy & hold?
We are finding more and more investors with our company who understand they can get double digit net returns on almost any investment property, even when buying turn-key - they come to us because their real concern is managing risk & preserving capitol.
Hence the question, in today's environment where there are multiple opportunities - what is more important, the chance for higher ROI or Managing the Risk?

I think the key to your question is in your first sentence- If this is truly for buy and hold, I assume a couple things.
1. You're young.
2. You have time on your side and not looking for the quick $$.
3. You have adaquate annual income and don't need ghetto, higher cash flow properties.
If this is true, I'd have zero interest in the higher risk/time required properties. Go with the better properties. They won't fall down, less maint and much easier mgmt. Rich
