Oh yes. Even better, knowing 100% it'll work (even though you're wrong 2% of the time about this) and just pushing/merging without running the tests/code locally. A risk but as long as you're more consistent than your peers who program by pattern patching and trial/error...
Or suppose you just buy the place outright, then 60-80% of the rent depending on how stingy you are and tax rate is just profit, you need not make any gains on the real estate at all, you're in the black the whole time on paper should you ever need to secure a loan, and in a 10-20 years you have a property plus the initial cash you invested. Probably the least efficient but also least risky way to go about it, you can always midway between the two strategies depending on risk tolerance, landlording is good business!
