After reading a few books on property investment, and a few magazines about it, I've got a question about cash flow positive properties.
Basically I see article after article about house-hunters saying they can't find CF+ properties anywhere. Also articles about "Where to find CF+ properties" etc...
My question is; Isn't every single property potentially cash flow positive?
I mean assuming you pay off enough of a deposit, wouldn't the rent income always have the potential to overlap the mortgage repayments? (Netting a positive cash income)?
If this is true, all these people saying they can't find cash flow positive properties, what are they talking about? Do they simply not have that much of a deposit?
Thanks in advance.
