Anyone else paying down mortgages rather than buying now?

Seems I keep getting beat on properties going for full price and more. These deals often have low returns and function solely on best case scenarios in my opinion. Anything good is snapped up quickly. At this point with multiple properties I've debated on accelerating payments on everything until I find something good. Recently was outbid on a small condo which could rent for $1250, to a person who went all cash at 125k. Having 125k in cash sitting around, the COC on return would be 5 percent after expenses. At that point I'd rather go idle......being a landlord isn't as easy as ALOT of people make it out to be!

Anyone else in the same boat?
