My philosophy is only buy a property that is taking a paper tax loss every year with straight line depreciation.

This philosophy has served me well over the past five years.

However, my philosophy is that if as an investor if you don't look at the whole pie of what's out there then you'll likely miss out on something.

The premise was that a person who rents can bank the cash he saves from buying, but at the end of the video the person who buys a house comes out slightly ahead of the renter who banks the money he saves.So, a person may think that the person who buys the house will always come out ahead, but my philosophy and the reason I have been successful is I prefer to not buy myself a house that puts me under any financial stress where I cannot function well.

That’s my philosophy at least!

I'm a big believer in his overall philosophy on investments and life. 

His risk of failing to live to his true potential is greatly lessened if he uses leverage intelligently to boost his chances of great long-term returns.Of course - all things in moderation - cash cushion, great operating philosophy, etc.

Much more prevalent 8-10 years ago when a MH was basically free (cost of land value), but the philosophy still works. 

$20K is more than enough to buy one property a year in my area with 15/20/30 yr fixed loan with 20% down and cosmetic rehab prior to renting.I’m going to assume answers will vary depending on personal investment philosophies and where people conduct real estate activities globally.

Agree....I started to just ask ask well, but even with that philosophy have been caught off guard when it gets pulled and never even thought to ask.
