Rental Income Lets us Live Rent Free! Or does it? TBD

If we are ever going to pay off this debt, we are going to have to get creative. So,


We have a plan.
I haven't decided how good of one it is.


Here is what I'm thinking:


We haven't narrowed down exactly where we will be moving, but in some of our options (OK, AZ, CA, OR) the cost of living/buying a house is SO cheap. Like, you can buy a pretty nice house (Think 3-4 bedrooms, 2-3 bathrooms in a nice neighborhood for 120k). --> mortgage payments for a house at this price are typically $600-$800 month, as a general rule of thumb. (obviously not in california, ha)

We are thinking we will buy a duplex, live in one side, and rent out the other side. In the areas we are looking at, units like this rent out for somewhere between $900-1200 a month, essentially the cost of our mortgage plus some likely maintenance fees that will come up.

Certainly there are cons to renting, and these are my top three concerns:
1) Finding legit tenants and dealing with bad ones
2) Collecting rent every month
3) Exposure to liability

But if that lets us live "rent free" (since tenants will be covering our mortgage) for a few years, maybe its worth it? What do YOU think??

  1. HOW EDWARD LOAN COMPANY GRANTED ME A BUSINESS LOAN!!!
    Hello everyone, I am Oliver Johnson Moore from Zurich Switzerland and want to use this medium to express gratitude to EDWARD JONES for fulfilling his promise by granting me a loan, i was stuck in a financial situation and needed to refinance and pay my bills as well as start up a Business. I tried seeking for loans from various loan firms both private and corporate organisations but never succeeded and most banks declined my credit request. But as God would have it, i was introduced by a friend named Lisa Rice to EDWARD JONES LOAN COMPANY and undergone the due process of obtaining a loan from the company, to my greatest surprise within 28hrs just like my friend Lisa, i was also granted a loan of $387,000.00; So my advise to everyone who desires a loan, "if you must contact any firm with reference to securing a loan online with low interest rate of 2% and better repayment plans/schedule, please contact EDWARD JONES LOAN COMPANY. Besides, he doesn't know that am doing this but due to the joy in me, i'm so happy and wish to let people know more about this great company whom truly give out loans, it is my prayer that GOD should bless them more as they put smiles on peoples faces. You can contact them via email on {Jonesloanfinance@yahoo.com} or Text +1(307) 241-3712
