$10,400 + $15,000 = $25,400.I am married with 2 kids and love the family time, so 1-2 transactions per year is a small time commitment and just barely cuts into family time.If I sell 2 transactions in a year then I buy another property that year as opposed to every 2 years.I put all houses on a 15 year loan.

If I sell 2 transactions in a year then I buy another property that year as opposed to every 2 years.

It’s like people feel the need to add it when they really mean it, as opposed to when they don’t mean it or are being dishonest.As someone said, first world problem.

M2M on the other hand provides real control as opposed to having faith in tenants.

We have read the beginners guide and it confirms the areas we are most interested in at this time are buy and hold (mostly multifamily, although we are not opposed to single family), possibly some fix and flips, and wholesaling.

I prefer to find houses with these as opposed to that god awful textured or popcorn ceilings.

Meaning you took action and bought properties, as opposed to those who just give opinion without skin in the game. 

I would like to specialize in multifamily 2 flats - 4 flats, as that’s what I’d like to eventually invest in myself.I'm not opposed to working on a team as long as I get to actively learn. 

Just to be clear, deferred maintenance in larger multifamily properties would have more to do with roofs, windows, doors, (entrance ways, common areas), parking lots, garages, hvac, appliances etc... as opposed to units needing flooring and paint and new vanities in bathrooms? 

I buy one or two notes at a time as opposed to large pools of notes and have made great money (I guess that's all relative).
