apartments are not really that profitable. but at least it's an income generating asset. but wait till you absorb the cost of repairs on maintaining your apartments. some tenants simply wont share coz it's in the law somewhere that it's the landlord's responsibility.

if you have bought apartments that can be turned into commercial establishments, then you're in luck. commercial tenants take care of their rented space for the same reason that it's not profitable for them not to do so.
