##top 3: investment-property (!! family home) wish-list

  1. small amount? so as to diversify and reduce negative impact
  2. reliable NRY considering vacancy, taxes+HOA, mortgage rate .. No need for white-hot rental demand
  3. low maintenance
  4. — secondary criteria
  5. close to where I live. Ideally, a good location that I don’t mind taking up myself
  6. relative price stability
    • appreciation? Hard to predict.
  7. stable currency

By far the best decision I made was … BridgeRetail. Remember at my age, cash-flow is more important than big profit.

In Bayonne, Small 2FH ~ 500k would be a reasonable choice.

  • Condo — nice small amount __but__ low NRY
