To be fair however, I'm looking for permanent debt on a mobile home park I own in which the trailers are also included in what I own.

This needs to be highlighted in the lease and acknowledged by them.Security Deposits: You can’t use their security deposit for routine cleaning, but if they leave things in bad shape beyond normal wear and tear, it’s fair game to deduct cleaning costs.I’d start by having a straightforward talk with them about the importance of keeping things clean for health reasons and property preservation.

If so, you will need to rollover those funds into respective money sources of pre-tax and Roth. 2) Analyzing whether to use IRA or Solo 401(k), is fairly straight forward, when the intent is for you to have your own business and want to use the funds for real estate investing.

I am so happy for you that you made it work and it sounds like you did a bunch of learning along the way too which you will benefit from greatly over the next years as well.

There are some serious housing perks with my new job offer: 1) $150K in a 0% interest forgivable loan for downpayment (10% forgiven each year 2) a special home loan program that is currently lending at an interest rate of 4.1%. 3) Can join a waitlist for on-campus faculty housing that is sold for at 50-75% of the fair market value consequently when you sell you are capped at how much you can sell for; waitlist for these homes is approximately 7-10 years and you can stay there until you die).
