Joe from Texas looking for advice

[Joseph Boese]

Hello my name is Joe and I am from Texas. I am new to BP, and am looking for some good advice. My goal is to become Financially independent. I have always been a saver and haven't carried a lot of debt.

I currently own 3 investment properties. 2 of them are free and clear and I owe 130k on my third one. Both my free and clear properties appraised between 160-170k. I have always thought that I should pay one condo off then buy another. After reading BP I am quickly realizing I could use some leverage and try to make my dreams a reality. What should my next moves be to maximize my earning potential in the next 5 years!

Looking forward to making new connections and getting some great advice.
