Although these things typically have a longer life then your typical leaky faucets or garbage disposal etc.

They want to retire now by disposing off their properties.

Beginning June 1, we will have $6000 a month of "disposable income" that I fully intend on utilizing. 

This is inclusive of disposal fees, permits to remove, air studies, etc etc. 

*The cap ex is only so low because there is no garage, fireplace, pool, washer, dryer, garbage disposal, the windows are small and single pane, only one door per unit, no real landscaping to upkeep, they are entirely brick,  and there’s a metal roof.

I am finishing up my masters in real estate development and have many resources at my disposal.

Don't spend all of your cash to dispose of a debt if the debt is still paying you.

Get disposable work gloves and wear clothes you can throw out if needed, remove as much as you can. 

Don't forget, you have to dispose of the asset or refinace in 5-10 years, what is that going to do to your returns if the market is softer?

I have about 10k at my disposal and am trying to get my first investment property under my belt.
