Investors often obsess over how to defer tax obligations and ultimately make poor investments due to being hyper focused on taxes.

It's the ultimate win/win.

Most of us have passions that will never be followed, amazing businesses or ideas that will never be pursued… unless we can solve the Cash-Flow Freedom Equation, which ultimately leads to Time-Freedom.

I have personally seen that scenario take place and what ultimately happened was that the company just came back to the debtor and said, "You have to come up with $XXX,XXX for us to be able to qualify you for help.  

I posted this in wholesaling but I didn't realized this section was here...Anyone heard of or have any feedback on REI Game Changers, James Hodges program?

A smaller paid off portfolio seemed a lot easier to manage so that is the path I was on.. but I've come to the realization if I ever want to accumulate serious wealth I will have to use leverage and scale big. 

Even though your Realtor might be good and helpful their ultimate goal is to get the house sold and no one will see the vision you have set for yourself, in the same light that you will.

Ultimately it's less of a science than an art, but people rarely truly change so what they did is probably what they'll do.

A true win-win I realize this is biggerpockets so we’re all supposed to act like real estate is the most amazing investment class on the planet.

Yes, I realize it was the first time, that is why I would cover the cost in an effort to be a good landlord and not discourage my tenants from reporting future issues.
