One appraised last year for 100k.

I haven't bought there in over 3 years due to the city.

Let's say you inherited a traditional IRA and take a $10,000 distribution this year.

Maybe if I was younger it would make more sense, but staying with the method I've used over the last 10 years will only become more refined and efficient.

I believe it started at $700/mo in the good old days of the recession and is now up to $1000 (undervalue about $150 for that area).

Have been talking about getting into real estate investing for the last 2-3 years and finally pulled the trigger on a 3 unit house hack in Soulard that will be closing later this month and will be self-managing the property.I'm trying to network a bit with other investors, build a solid team of contractors / handymen, and set my systems up in way to scale, but also so my tenants have a good experience.

I spent about a year there and I had an overall good experience.Most KW offices hold weekly in-person training hosted by various experienced professionals.

Once you own them, then you can refi them separately in a year or two.  

I sold the property at a lost 2 years later.

I am new to investing, but have been researching/dreaming of it for years.
