Really expedites the time it takes to reach FI when you can completely eliminate your housing payment and get into multis for such little down and start building equity/cash flow with each one.

For example - I have a duplex that rents for $1350 - the mortgage when I started was $636.

Quote from @Rushi Shah: Hi everyone, my partner and I are renting right now and looking to start our landlord journey.

Not sure what I did wrong, but it appears I am not able to start a post for questions, but looks like I can answer post fine. 

But about 1 year after we bought the property, they started cracking down on the homeless in downtown Jacksonville moving the crime to the neighborhoods just outside of Jacksonville.

Looking for feedback from folks who have been in similar situations and have lessons learned or advice, as I am just getting started and this is literally my first post.Wife and I moved out of our first townhouse and rented it out to grow our family 3 years ago.

I sold that in 92. next iteration was 2002 when I started a new lending company in Portland OR to specifically fund Turnkey buyers in the mid west doing BRRRR loans we killed that.

I'm not sure of what exactly, but something led me to start connecting with others here and do my best to actually stay active.

You should have already started the eviction process!

However, when STOA first started going down the tank, they were negotiating with me on interest because selling them on MLS was a different entity at that time.
