I've 1 rental left after having 5 or so properties over the last 20 years. The first 5-10 years was time and cash poor building the portfolio on the smell of an oily rag. If I include a value on that time then the return on investment is only vaguely satisfactory. Yes I'm left with a chunk of cash but on reflection I would've gone a different route. I certainly can't see why you'd bother now.
