The goals are to: keep your living expenses at or below your current rent, build equity in your appreciating market, learn the ins and outs of REI / land lording.Take the rest of your capital (minus a responsible safety fund) and deploy it in out-of-state MFRs of ever-increasing size.

As long as economy stays the same... need another 3-6 months.Summary: left a 30mm business to start in wholesaling, digital market expert + call center experience.

For me FIRE is about having a significant safety cushion for when LIFE happens. 

Caveat is I do agree with the general 70% rule as a safety net on lower dollar flips.  

And even still, there are other solutions that will help you to keep everything in one place (get a new listing for the property up and posted to 10+ major rental listing sites, managing listing responses + scheduling viewing times, tenant screening w/ a fully comprehensive application, digital lease creation, online rent collection, and maintenance request tracking in one spot).

In fact, my sister found her last rental via facebook and it has worked out tremendously; however, I will say, it could be worth considering a still listing via a landlord software tool (1 - 15 units) that helps you to automate your own rental process and can help to get a renter in there fast (ie. compared to other tools, one that helps you to actually build a single listing and syndicates it to 10+ major listing sites, allows you to schedule showings, provides you with super thorough tenant screening options, online digital leases which can be customized and help you by breaking out those fees, automated maintenance tracking, and fast rent collection which also offers your tenants the ability to report their positive on-time payments to the major credit bureaus; just another positive reinforcement/added incentive to get them to make those payments on time).

So I put on my respirator and safety goggles to keep the dust off me because as you might remember from previous posts it’s always safety first with this guy!

FEMA described the project as a "multi-year project to re-examine Pinellas County coastal flood zones and develop detailed, digital flood hazard maps (Flood Insurance Rate Maps)".So one of the biggest changes coming with the new FEMA flood zone maps is the fact that they are being digitized.

You have to inspect-for the safety of any other tenants.

My wife & I have flipped 17 houses since we started and I always took my own pictures with my phone or digital camera, never thought it made a difference.
