Some groups seemed to be focused on using you as their cash cow to fund the organizers lifestyle. 

Even if it never happens in my life time, you still have to build for it.

It’s amazing how life can come full circle, especially with your roots in Birmingham, Alabama, where you’re now building out your next venture.Flipping homes is a great way to start, and transitioning into the BRRR strategy for rentals sounds like a solid plan, especially with the growth in select Southern markets.

I had a W2 I wanted to leave and thought that owning 30 rental properties would be enough to retire from corporate life.

This way, you’re not going all-in on a new roof before you need to, but you’re also avoiding costly water damage that could eat into the savings.In other words, patch it up, keep it durable, and wait to replace only when there’s no life left in it—Tonka style!

Don't make your life more complicated than it has to be.

For most people to earn enough cashflow to have a comfortable lifestyle from rental properties may take many many years.

I can feel that push internally, too—getting out there and connecting with people one-on-one is really my style.

This influx is largely driven by young professionals and families attracted to the city's burgeoning tech scene and quality of life.

I can see through DOM the contrast between those struggles and the lease ups of the better located single families in the area.I cant say with certainty this applies across the entire city but what’s known is the fact people are getting married and starting families later in life than in the past, young people have more debt than ever before thanks to student loans, the cost of buying ahome has never been higher & most  families decide to move to the suburbs when they have school aged children.
