@Thomas SanfordWelcome from a fellow Okie, I just re-listened to think and grow rich on a long car ride for the holiday's.

I'm going to ride through during the night as well.

I guess what I'm thinking is they put up half or a portion of the money and either we ride it out splitting income 50/50 from now...until or I have the option to buy them out after X amount of time and give a percentage on the money borrowed.

So they will ride the ups and downs of rental income and gain on sale with you.

I hail from Madison, WI and looking to gain knowledge (like everyone) on investing in multi-family as well as NNN lease commercial.

@Ali Boone last time I was in Williams AZ I was riding the Polar Express with my 3 sons to go see Santa Claus!

And some places have hurricanes, tornadoes, hail the size of baseballs, sink holes, known foundation problems, harsh heat in the summer and severe cold in the winter - all increasing maintenance costs.

I suppose if you can maintain a decent daily budget and ride it out for awhile it may provide a deal or two, I think I could put that money elsewhere and get a better ROI.

I have had two fires in the last ten years, plus a couple hailed out roofs and siding.

The more you save and the more investments you have to ride the tide, you will not need as much W2 income.
