I read your post and everyone else's here and not one person knows how much protection you currently have in place.As someone who was accustomed to thinking (mostly) "offense only" I can unequivocally say that the best offense means nothing without good defense.Offensively, you seem to be well positioned offensively.It's hard to say what to do next because we only know how your offense is set up.What happens to you or your wife's plans if either of you lose your high paying W2?

please take no offense but how is this a good deal\ ?

No offense to all the great agents out there but unless someone is willing to sign up to get the work done at a certain price then anything they say should be critically examined.2. 

No offense Melanie but I'd rather own 20-30 in Ohio than 5 in Cali.20-30 in Ohio and managed well is retirement.Owning 5 in an appreciating market is speculation.One can't pay the bills from speculation or appreciation unless they pull out equity.Monthly net cashflow can be lived off per se.Thanks and each to their own

Because these companies work on behalf of the govt, they're not allowed to think for themselves (no offense to the govt workers out there- but so true) and have very strict guidelines for considering and accepting bids.

I like Single Tenant Buildings because they are almost hassle free with no ongoing fees for operations or management etc Hope this helps Cherif Medawar SFIFund No offense, but your math is wrong.

@James Luctamar Yeah, no offense, but the same questions get posted over & over again, and the BiggerPockets search function is basically useless.

Don’t take offense, just get a few more quotes.

That is why so many of the very successful real estate investors here have completely paid off portfolios.It’s not always offense all the time for me.

That is such an offensive thing to say.
