If you are prepared to take money out of your pocket every month to pay for all your maintenance expenses, plus taxes,insurance, and fees, go for it.I'm not even including a mortgage payment or any replacements of appliances or mechanicals.As a pure investment that generates a true cash flow i could never get the numbers to work in any situation .I would love to own an investment property in TV,but after realizing the price i would have to pay for a property and the postive cash flow i would receive after expenses,it wasn't a viable investment i wanted to pursue. I've always believed you make your money when you buy investment real estate and not when you sell.At the current prices in TV, my best advice is to purchase a home as an owner -occupant and live happily ever after.
