It looks like they have the option to pay cash or large downs to make them positive. As long as there is a fundamentally viable rental market I think the pure investment return numbers are not critical In this scenario.I am not saying go throw money down a hole of course. It’s diversification issue too. The small rental business, I would say start with two, is a type employment that is self created and will provide documented income. Maybe enough to pay his rent or his PITI on a modest owner occupied house or more too. Then maybe they build a little better nest egg, but even if they don’t they look pretty good and have a better safety net. What would Suze Orman say?

Um…maybe if the rent doesn’t cover the costs?
Based upon a quick survey of asking rents on Craigslist, one might conclude that that it would cash flow. But asking rates on Craigslist and actual reality can be quite different.
I think vacancy is big factor.
But if you can show me a sub $200K property in Temecula and convince me that it will cash flow, I would be genuinely interested.
