@Bryan PhamCongrats on leaving the W2 environment. 

In the past 4 years, I have bought multi-family apartments and find that the cash flow there is great, and in this environment (not typical), the appreciation was good too.And now to do both (Yes and No); If I was in your shoes trying to decide what to do, I would focus on finding myself a place to live in that I could call my own.

I can sleep peacefully now :) Thanks again!

So yes, you're reading it right, we bought a building in February of 2018 in a rising rate environment with a loan that adjusts monthly.

Well worth it for your peace of mind.

Hopefully he leaves peacefully.

Leaning toward keeping forever...avoid the tax hit, more income (on average) and as long as our systems are in place, we should be able to travel in peace.

The returns aren't quite as good as Denver, but they're still good, and the prices are lower in the Springs.And of course, the big reason we like it down there is because the regulatory environment is friendly to Airbnb/VRBO and short-term rentals.

Hey. I live currently in fort st john, bc. Was wondering if some locals, or around fort st john investers are on here. Would like to connect. I'm interested in flipping,  and duplex rentals , but not limited too. 

For the amount offered on the house, by me telling him what was wrong with the house, gave him peace of mind that it really does need a lot of work and my offer is far.
