You are correct that prices are high, it's also good to know that 2-4 unit properties are extremely popular at the moment.

At the current moment, I am following option 3, I have placed the money in different investments, cd's, annuities, mm, etc. 

I could use the input from a more experienced investor as I am in a tough cookie at the moment and don't want to make decisions out of despair.

Ego drinking problem moments of laziness I did work pretty hard but I could tell you that there was a few minutes here and there were I probably could’ve done something else instead I was eating lunch or ********ting with my friends or working on something silly when I should’ve been working something something important I never really didn’t show up to work I was there every day .

Incredibly clumsy roll out on VRBO's part. 

But the more I learn about corporate credit and D&B and CAPEX scores, the more it seems that having an LLC is worth just for the benefits of building access to increasing capital over time through corporate credit and "true" business credit.Re: regular business credit cards, as you mentioned, I'm using Fund&Grow at the moment to get as many as I can (but those cards have my personal guarantee attached to them).

Would be incredibly grateful for any insight. 

Not a huge a deal considering most of the country can’t find it at all.And right now…most of us are buying with the intention of refinancing “some day soon”.I have 2 properties under contract to purchase at this very moment.

Love the idea of asking AI to compare and contrast strategies. 5 years ago I would have rolled my eyes or even downvoted such a topic, but the reality is that in the year 2024 AI is an incredibly powerful tool for gathering objective information to make decisions.

At the moment you have negative cash flow, which isn’t great.
