@Adam Schneider Thanks for the suggestion... though I'm not sure what AAPL is and when I google search I get Apple stock info. : )   Though I'm a fan of their product, I'm pretty sure that's not what you were suggesting.

The Stock Market, for example, allows millions of people to participate as Shareholder Partners, enjoying the benefits of the Assets they are buying.Where the Education comes in has to do with the understanding that it's not about the PRICE of the Asset.

A couple of years later there was a desire by securities folks and folks who wanted to  put together larger groups of investors and create a more "stock like" product that still qualified for 1031 treatment. 

I'm okay with this reality, as my stock market gains look like crap after Trump's trade war (hoping that has changed by the time you read this).

Also, Brookland Park Boulevard is undergoing a transformation near Chamberlayne Avenue that may help Highland Park as well.Still, I don't like to bank on appreciation with real estate investments and I don't think that the housing stock in Highland Park will lead to the high end renovations going on in surrounding neighborhoods.

Another thing that helps maximize the strategy is the amount of cash inflows a person has each month or the amount of inflows because on a revolving line the interest is calculated daily or on an average daily balance like what  depending on the LOC (line of credit).on the All in One or AIO loan from CMG the interest is calculated daily and swept or added to your balance at 12AM each day so all your paychecks, rental checks from rentals, or stock dividends, distributions from your business, or etc can be used to lower your balance by 12AM each day and lower your total interest costs.Most HELOC's or lines of credit calculate interest on the average daily balance which is like all balances within the last 30 days divided by 30 which is not as efficient as the AIO's daily sweep but close.The third method of interest calculation is the 30 year fixed which amortizes or calc's interest every 30 days or month so extra principal paid into this loan after the 1st of the month doesnt lower the incremental interest on the reduced balance till next month.

I can see the possibility of going as far south as Tacoma,  and there is certainly plenty of housing stock of the type I'm interested in,  and as population and price pressure continues to push people out of Seattle,   Tacoma is going to keep getting better.      

First wave is from the initial cause— let’s say it’s a stock market blip.

Think of this type of service as similar to a mainstream brokerage, with paperwork to do different things beyond stocks. 

I currently have ~$6k between cash and stock market investments and am saving about $1.5k - $2k a month going forward.
