@Jordan Childs do you self manage or are you running a property management company?

Negativity  and long, carefully-thought-out posts don't up the hits in forums like these, doesn't sell advertising during a craze.

My intent is to build a business that I can eventually hand down to my child.

Hopefully, first child's college fund...

Hopefully, second child's college education Lessons learned?

Almost like a child who imagines he wants to go to the moon.
