Assumptions: specifically allowed in city ordinances, mobile home manufacturing in the area, or that someone heavily marketed that area as a retirement location in the past. 

Sit back and grab some popcorn.I will chop this up into smaller segments, so each one isn't too long of a read and has a central theme.Both Retiring and doing Self Storage, we hit the mark where we both had the funding and the time to invest overseas. 

This will save you on subscription costs.If you want to discuss any of this further, I'm happy to answer questions and help walk you through it.Best of luck!

Also, the fees plus being a forced buyer with a deadline on a 1031 exchange may negate the small tax savings.

Leveraging a HELOC (home equity line of credit) could allow you to invest in multifamily without completely draining your savings.

Its a good place to retired there.

There was an article published in Sept 2024 that showed the average consumer would save over $10,000 by working with a broker vs a direct lender over the life of their loan.

I'd like to keep savings and be able to hire out some of the work (something we have not done in the past).My thoughts are to put both into an LLC and look for investors or a business loan, and purchase and move to a new home.

If you can save up for a slightly higher down payment your margin for success will be significantly higher.Also, I strongly agree with the "buy the worst in a great neighborhood, live in the worst unit of the triplex and slowly fix it up yourself."

This implies paying down is saving 6%.
