Modelling rent from real estate

[TAndronicus]

How do you model a real estate that you rent? I'd like to have it as a separate strategy and not CashFlow, because the frequency of payments should be independent from the rest of the strategy, so I'd like to use it as a child to update the capital. I don't want to buy more units of it or invest in it anyhow. It's value also does not matter. If I make it a FixedIncomeStrategy, I'm getting the following excpetion when trying to use it as a child strategy:

ValueError: Cannot have fixed income strategy child (inflow) of non-fixed income strategy (umb)

Here's my attempt:

inflow = bt.FixedIncomeStrategy(
    "inflow",
    [bt.algos.SelectAll(),
     bt.algos.WeighEqually(),
     bt.algos.RunMonthly(),
     bt.algos.CapitalFlow(2000),
     bt.algos.Rebalance()],
    [bt.core.FixedIncomeSecurity("Inflow source")]
)

This could also be considered a model of the salary inflows.
