For illustration purposes, the investor with engineering and/or construction background may excel building in a market where there is ease in doing business and can build efficiently whereas the doctor may have greater success in the established market where significant barriers already exist but can afford the entry price and can ride the waive of continued appreciation and offset their high salary by depreciating the expensive building they acquired.  

You may be under or over as the market continues to shift!

I have saved $25k over the last 18 months and continue saving $1500/month from my job.

I'm going to continue my real estate investment plans!!

Continue to do your research and also ask ChatGPT questions as well as I have been finding Ai to be super useful for research lately.

My long term investing goals are to build a portfolio and continue investing with my husband after this project.

Go to Etsy and search for "rental property tracker," and you will find hundreds of nice spreadsheets to track 10-20 rentals, usually for under $10.Software has extremely helpful features like online payments, marketing syndication (click a button, and your property is advertised on multiple sites), electronic document review/signing, maintenance tracking, and owner reports.

In the meantime I will continue the search for a new PMC and talk to our lawyer with the intent of filing a suit since odds are it will be needed. 

If it sells for >$120k I'll get a good chuckle and continue being clueless about this market. 

DSCR loans could be a good option if you want to continue to grow your rental portfolio.
