@Dion DePaoliHard to put an exact cause to the big gains, other than we are students of our business.

And while these groups help you a lot with the actual strategy, the best part is the network you'll gain which pushes you 10 times further then googling all the free stuff.

What make it hard to enforce is that the ‘Post Nup” must have both sides receive “fair” value - so what exactly is the spouse without the asset gaining?  

Let's think about what fox news would gain from telling people Mexico is dangerous?

@Shane Cordrey - Are you looking to primarily invest directly as an owner operator or have you also considered investing as a Passive Limited Partner in Multifamily ?

If you pay the surcharge of 2.5% that's $3,750 so you net a gain.  

You will have to do something unique to make it effective & useful to you... because it's always no pain, no gain!

I'm no tax pro but I don't think the debt really matters, you will still pay capital gains. 

The knowledge you gain from it will enable you to grow 10X in the future.

Other options could look like a property closer to you or in an area you are more familiar with, could be turnkey options with an established company, could be partnering with someone to gain some experience.
