Calculate the income produced by the property and subtract the expenses with the exception of debt service (Principle and Interest). 

Multis in the midwest seem incredibly affordable and a popular choice, but for career, education, and other reasons I'm not ready to move to Kansas next year.

I'm not too sure about that, especially with the kind of clowns I've seen put in tile here in da Burgh.I'm sure the tile floors I lay down with my incredibly talented and supremely skilled  two good hands are nothing short of perfect (always 'umble, very 'umble), but about two months ago, we pulled out about 350 square feet on No. 1 three-quarter-inch white oak tongue and groove flooring that I dated to circa 1928.

It is incredibly stupid and, therefore, incredibly irritating for someone to bother me.

I've already found it incredibly resourceful so first off thank you to everyone that puts in their hard work and effort into sharing their knowledge and being helpful.

By re-investing and setting long-term goals, you'll have your debt paid off sooner than you think.I'm incredibly biased on this topic btw...

I hold one as a rental and it produces the highest ROI due to the low price I paid for the property.
