My properties will go to my kids to sell when I pass, they can do what they want with the money, it will be somewhat tax free for them ( PA has an inheritance tax). but to retire, IDK, depending on what you want to do and your life style, PA does have a lot of choices of life styles, the town I invest in is a nice small town, like I have lived in all my life, but don't know if I would retire there.

Look at the numbers and your lifestyle.

If you want to scale bigger and perhaps leave your W2 (assuming you have one), then you may not be able to cash flow enough from of a small portfolio to maintain or increase your lifestyle.

Depends on what you want for your lifestyle and investing goals.

Financial independence can be achieved much faster when set up your lifestyle to achieve it.

How have you allocated your assets/cashflow for your lifestyle now that you are set?

What happens if one partner intends to retain the income to buy additional properties when another partner wants to take more distribution to have a better lifestyle? 

You could by all three in proportion and call it a day or weight the portfolio to what you feel has the best growth ie Lifestyle vs All ages and tenant owned vs rental. 

Their lifestyle needs supporting (also I speculate they want to stay relevant and successful on social media - EGO), many flipped like maniacs for years and didn't keep a single rental.

You will also see people from other States move into Detroit because they can see opportunity for affordable housing and perhaps a better lifestyle for familiesPeople can live in the past and poo poo Detroit till the cows come home, but those paying attention can make money riding the new wave.I have said it before Detroit is on the cusp of a comeback and I wish I had jumped in earlier as many of the markets I like are already too expensive now.
