so how much did you actually have to pay out to buy dude out ..

you're expecting the payments to be covered by renting it out ?


how long is left of the term.. another 10 years?



good investment for the future once you have it up and generating income.

An industrial builing only needs walls and a roof.  I'd put heat and basic wiring in it, but after that, the tennant pays for everything else.  It isn't maintenence free, but it's a lot less work than residential or commercial.

You gotta take care of the landscaping, snow removal (if necessary), parking lot, painting and fire & security systems but it would be less work than an apartment building or condo.

They're all tax write offs...you can contract a company that does ground work (cleaning/landscape) the rest you can hire yourself.

Now my cell phone bills will be free  :D time for an upgrade.

i own 3 houses here in aust. a few years ago our government was giving people money towards building houses etc, so i took advantage of it. i live in one, have people living in the other 2 and it's ok. their rent is double the mortgage payments, which puts plenty of $ aside for other shit that needs doing if something goes wrong

Read my prior posts...that's the best way to make money if you want to rent out.

I probably keep renting out my place forever  ;D because it's near SDSU and I'm sure SDSU is not going anywhere.

Hmm, there's some stupidity floating around this thread.  First, what do you do when you go 2 or 3 months with no renters? You fall way behind on the bills.  What do you do with the 10 grand worth of damage they did to the property before they left?  You fall way behind on the bills.  You're in way over your head, unless you're making, oh, 100 grand a year.  If you're not making 100 grand a year, you have no business buying a half million dollar house.

SUV write offs?  Are you seriously that stupid?  Lemme get this straight.  You're gonna pay 50 grand to buy an SUV, just so you can deduct it from your income?  So... BEST case scenario, lets say you can deduct the full thing! 100% (which is ludicrious)... even if you could deduct 100% of the payment from your taxable income, that's like spending 100% of your money, to save the 24 percent of your money they would have taxed.  You just gave away a dollar, to keep from giving the government 24 cents.  Nice going genius, keep at it!

there isnt an average salary, because you get paid on commissions. It just depends on how hot the market is, or how well you market yourself.

But, its typically very good money. Especially in California.
