I'm only looking at real estate investing as a way to supplement my retirement in 10 years as apposed to putting more money into a 401K.  

This is my first BP post, however I’ve been devouring podcasts at 2x speed as I work on renovations.My/our goal is to develop a supplemental income from rental properties.

You NEED money to do this folks, as a profession obviously, as a supplemental income / retirement plan definitely, and as a casual hobby I would still say probably.   

I'm looking for buy/hold property for rental income to supplement retirement income.

“Z”; $2,736(no other box in Part III is used.)Supplemental information for the 1065 states:“CLASSIFICATION OF INCOME AS PASSIVE OR NON PASSIVE AS IT APPLIES TO THE IRC SEC. 1411 NET INVESTMENT INCOME TAX MUST BE DETERMINED FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL PARTNER.

I'd like to continue working in the tech field, and RE to me is a supplemental cash flow, as well as a diversification of the portfolio.The posts I've been reading in the forum, blog posts, twitter feed, podcasts have been quite encouraging, and I'm just excited to learn more from everyone here!

I think getting into real estate investing could supplement your career as a union carpenter greatly.
