Real estate should not usually be looked at as a speculative short term venture
This is not true. Your loan is not a 30 year fixed on commercial property. Your equity will be gone and you will not cash flow.

I love real estate and buy it with my extra cash but it is like all investments. It really helps if you know what you are doing.
