You're the reason I stay active on this forum and love to encourage people to find what they're good at, what makes them happy, and give them financial freedom!

Where these numbers are found, there is a very high rate of rent actually being paid.We have over a dozen Fortune 500 companies just in Metro Detroit with huge Healthcare, Auto, and mortgage industry National footprints.

Rental prices for a 3bd/2ba/2cg home 1500-2000sqft can easily range from $1,800-2,600 per month. 4) Major employers in Central NM include Sandia National Labs, Los Alamos National Labs, Kirtland Air Force Base, FBI, US Federal Government, State of New Mexico, ABQ Public Schools, University of New Mexico, Central NM Community College, Presbyterian Healthcare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Lovelace Healthcare, UNM Hospitals/Cancer Center/Level I Trauma Center/Regional Medical Center, Netflix Studios & Film Industry, Solar Panel Manufacturing & Renewable Energy Industry, Meow Wolf, Amazon Fulfillment and Distribution Centers, etc.

My Why is to establish a life of freedom.

It's because typically people say they want financial freedom but are looking for an easy button where they do minimal work and all this success happens in their life.

Owning rental properties is not freedom.

Does that include covering your (future) retirement needs, health care costs, all other corporate benefits?

I'm not sure what i'd do afterwards, but by then i'd have a lot more financial freedom. 

I've only owned a couple sfh am middle-aged and not sure I agree with flipping sfh at this point to create wealth, time freedom and passive income so I have been reading and there seems to be a lot of talk with multi-families and more specifically apartment investing.
