After receiving my first paycheck as a college grad I watched it disappear into my landlord's pocket. My wife and I carefully decided to purchase a home with a unit to rent out and pay our mortgage. It works perfectly and we appreciate our tenant and try to provide as much value to them as they are for us. It has allowed me to keep more of my paycheck and put my wife through graduate school. We stumbled into Real Estate and this has become a new passion. I now dream of financial freedom!
