A more stable of building wealth is to have as many rental properties as possible before I'm forced to retire from my physically demanding job, The safer route seems to be to pay off the mortgage rental as fast as possible, which I'm doing.

I have the the Love Language book on my shelf and mine is quality time, hence my deep desire to become free from my job. 

I believe in steady & stable growth and so my goal is acquiring one new property every year.That being said, it seems that inventory in our area like others is low and prices are getting up there.

Do you think that paying 30-50% of your salary on rent is a stable situation?

Ideally would want to do a walk through this week or early next with a start from 7/16.We will be doing more flips this year so looking to start building a stable team of experts and this is an easy project to start with.If interested or if you have recommendation, please let me know!

Well you’ll need stable income to make this work.

but I will take a guess at what your askingif the developer is going to bust this into lots and you stay in you just lost your tax advantages and will be deemed a dealer at the highest tax rates.sell now no risk.. and best tax treatment you could 1031.if its one property and your saying should I partner and they are going to build an apartment on it and we will keep it.. that's different.. but you lose control because your now going to put a massive amount of debt on it.. all though in your area not too risky given market conditions.. and really depends on your developer  known, reputable and stable ?

Main interest is in cash flow properties in stable areas.Look forward to talking with some of you!

If you want good long term, stable cash flow, I would look at midwest markets like Kansas City and Indianapolis. 

We have two good and stable jobs and I also own a business.
