Agree with Frank PatinoI would consider using my investments to pay off bad debt- Plus if the property is building equity from paying down the loan and increasing in value by the time you do retire the account you have now should be a fat little piggy bank.

Like McDonalds or a grocery store.    

I was going by the 87.5 percent rule The average home buyer cannot buy the 1588 sq ft condos downtown  for $675,000  I'm two miles from downtown 1/4 mile from Canada  There is still excellent opportunity as the prohibitive prices expand into adjacent neighborhoods.Dan Gilbert (Quicken Loans) owns more than 100 buildings downtown and is currently building 4 more 1 is costing him around $800,000,000.00 for the one building Hudson's Department Store Site It was supposed to be the 23rd tallest building in the US but it got shorter with his massive stroke and Covid 19There are areas that I think will come back faster than my area did ( buy for $10k put $20k into it worth $150-$200k in three years) The only point I was making was I NEVER understood why people cited Detroit as an example of good cash flow but no appreciation.The appreciation has been unbeatable.

Remove and store "clutter" in the house5.  

thank you. im going to research what a 203K is.. meanwhile i have been thinking of properties with rental units above a store front/restaurants.

Bonus structure was 20% of whatever they don't spend, which I saved them 100k, gave me a big fat check of 20k after 2 months, timeline was 3 months, so who knows how much they gained renting those spaces for that extra month.

Our county auditor site is nicely organized with bed/bath, square ft, etc. if a property seems to have sold for outside the typical window I see I look it up in Zillow or sibcycline.com (a local Company that stores the previous 3 years of sales) to determine the prior condition of the property.
