You upset the apple cart, and the banks will lock you out as they don't like people moving that fast.

@Franklin Barnes - you definitely don't want your numbers to be too tight. 

However, it is not comparing apples to apples when one only uses rental cash flow vs stock market gains, imo.

They end up making it worse.Even if BP was to issue a warning about an investor, that doesn't remove their content from their website, Facebook, Instagram, Youtube, Apple and Spotify.

Thats like telling Apple if there was a major recession and no one bought phones anymore hey would be screwed!

Not having my criteria was frustrating because nothing seemed to fit and I could not evaluate properties well because it was never an apples to apples comparison.

I agree, its like trying to compare apples to oranges.

The people with a lot of positive reviews are known as good sellers, and the people who have a lot of negative reviews typically don't get anyone's business or they may get outright banned.Now, this site I mention isn't selling houses, so maybe this is an apples to oranges comparison.  

People are like apples good and bad.  

You would have paid 186k in interest or a total of 452k for the house at the end of the term. your income in the samw time period is a cash flow of ca 500/month or 180k over the course of the loan, and same appreciation assumption after 30yrs (850k) your total return would be 578k, compared to the 1,48M of my initial example 🤯 I dont want to rationalize a bad deal, i have done quite well with my other properties, and love good cashflow as much as the next guy - but comparing apples to apples, if i dont NEED the cashflow, WHY would this be a 'bad deal'?
