Have a specific situation in my life.

I feel like this question has probably been asked/answered on here but I can't for the life of me figure out how to search the forums so I guess I'll just make a post myself!

Plus, having an income-generating property while living mortgage-free in Sacramento could offer the best of both worlds.But hey, I get it-sometimes a debt-free life with no tenant hassles is hard to pass up.

It's a very desirable area, and it's a good property, but I think a few quality of life things are holding it back.

Alternatively, you can own the rental directly, take the income directly and simplify your life, taxes and everything.

We are currently in the most volatile of times I have ever seen in my entire life, and that's really saying something.

So, think of this model as the financial life a child would receive had the parents stayed together.

But the general appearance of the unit can gauge its remaining usable life.

Unfortunately I wound up with a life changing situation that forced me to give it up. 

Financial freedom isn't just about replacing your current income; it's about maintaining your desired lifestyle for the rest of your life.
