The problem is that the interest rates will kill your investment over the long run - unless it is
a) a very undervalued asset
b) a non-manipulated asset
c) an expected quick return on your investment - so as to minimize loan exposure
Also remember the banks can get a loan at near zero rate from the central bank while the individual has to pay from a few percent to double digit %.
