Nice post, I sort of skimmed it.

Some things you have to include when renting multiple properties is vacancy and maintenance. These are costs to the property owner and can be significant.

I'd say maintenance is $100-$200/month per house and a fair vacancy rate is generally 5%-10%.

With Claytons example - can a pro poker player easily get a mortgage like that? Also, I take it he is just paying the interest on these loans, so he gets the downpayment and the appreciation back for himself? Sorry if my questions are obvious.

I don't really know what Roth IRA is. Some kind of pension? I live in the UK, same thing there?

ISA's here I believe.

And Jay, told you this before, but my experience is that UK mortgage lenders will not even look at you for a 10% deposit mortgage if your income is solely poker related (a select few might consider it with a very high paid and fairly young guarantor).
