They were attracted to the potential for cash flow, largely because so few markets would cash flow any more with higher rates.

Hi Samuel,When considering how to pay off a loan faster, both methods you've mentioned—making a large principal payment at the end of each year versus bi-weekly payments—can be effective, but they operate differently.Large Principal Payments: Making a large payment once a year can significantly reduce your principal, leading to lower interest costs over the life of the loan.

There was a brief period a couple of years ago where demand was out-pacing supply by a large margin, but that has calmed down.

For instance I got a lot of my rental payment upfront, (a large cash inflow as a payment type) but I cant apply/reconcile it as category “rent” because I already marked the month’s rent as paid – just one quick example.

Depending on how large that profit margin is determines if it makes more sense to rent and refi or sell and take the quick cash.

This is the problem I observe with most when in comes to entity formation and asset protection. 99% of the individuals who post questions in these forums are for some reason pushed to believe they should at least research entity structures that are completely unnecessary.

These tools reduce the need for a large management staff.

Also, rather than taking a large amount of money and investing into one single directly owned property, I can split it up into much smaller chunks across many different passive investments.
