Make sure every investment is solid and that you know how to manage them well.

Even if you go "vertical", that tends to require an architect as well. 

I'm new to Fairmont and just reread Rich Dad as well. 

Thank you and to you as well with your future endeavors. 

Great community to bounce ideas off of as I build my knowledge base.  

Is it ok if I msg you for details as well?

I would suggest looking into syndications as well.

If a 2-bedroom unit rents for $1,800/month in these neighborhoods, you’re well-positioned to offset your mortgage.2.

I appreciate the reminder as well that if the gain is fairly low then it may make more sense to just pay the capital gains taxes now versus 1031 exchange. 

I have found that they worked really well when it comes to getting better tenants and better rents, and having less hassle, less headaches, and then getting a higher sales price; without paying closing costs or realtor fees.
