I'm hoping to buy my first house next summer - fall, and rent out rooms to pay for the mortgage. 

Here's where it gets tricky; I'm using a masshousing loan to finance the property and I'm also worried about the insurance falling through.

There are risks as its a margin loan, so if US Treasuries fall, you will be asked to replenish the account.

(Replacement) The rule of thumb is to be a buyer of real estate when prices fall below replacement cost, and a builder of real estate when prices rise above replacement cost.

We really hope not to fall into that cliche and take good care of the property.

The South Shore and South Coast have some reasonably priced areas for both SFRs and MFRs.Target towns include Plymouth, Kingston, Pembroke, Brockton, Middleboro, Taunton, Fall River and New Bedford.In these areas, 1% rule is common and in Fall River and New Bedford, I've seen 2% properties.Call me if you want to chat.

I've been running the numbers on multiple locations and i have yet to find a property that can produce and fall within the 2% rule.
