Grant has been preaching of a market crash since early 2023. 18 Months later, nothing.Robert Kiyosaki has been claiming it for 3 years.

Or buying a property in a seller's market, and then buying another one a few years later in a buyer's market.

I look at it through the lens of: 1) If I contribute to a pre-tax account like a pre-tax 401k, Traditional IRA, SEP IRA, I get a tax deduction, but now I'm in a partnership with the IRS, but I don't know what I will have to pay them later on in life when I start pulling money out (that is because when you distribute you pay taxes based on your effective tax rate at that time, which can be unknown). 2) With Roth accounts, (Roth IRA/Solo 401k(k) with Roth component), I can get the taxes out of the way on the seed, so I don't have to pay on the crop. 

And those deals turned out to be huge equity gains 10 years later for sure. 

If I go the conventional route ,at the pace of my savings, I would be able to afford a property in that price range a little over a year later.

Send me an email lets chat at a later date. 

You can always sell later.

That waiting time will probably be shortened in the future.The winning bidder at the most recent auction has the right of first refusal to buy later years' liens at the same redemption rate. 

Even though she paid one-year upfront doesn't mean they will be able to afford it month to month later.

We’ve seen units of that age last for several more years after being serviced, but we’ve also had instances where we paid for the service only to replace the unit a week later.
