In dealing with people in this industry; tenants, contractors, other investors, etc. at times can cause you to wonder about the human race.

Right from the horses mouth we could be looking at another dip in RE values.

The oldest restriction that comes to mind in the US is the prohibition of any sale to a person based on race and you can still find them in title searches or abstracts, but such a restriction now violates the Fair Hosuing Act and is simply overlooked and unenforceable.I have never heard of any bank enforcing a deed restriction and voiding any sale, especially since it would effect a new owner in title say 45 days later.

The more you're willing to struggle and reduce yourself to just "surviving", the quicker you will get to you goal. think of it as a foot race, the harder you push yourself and the more you suffer, the quicker you will reach that finish line.

I swear - people still rode in horse & buggy when my 4-unit's windows were installed. 

@Nichole Stohler, very inspiring success story, I respect anyone that gets back on the horse after they've been knocked off!

And yes yes I will consult legal before I execute- but my mind is racing about it now so I figured I would ask conversationally.

I feel like if I took on side/freelance jobs as an IT Consultant, I'd spend the same amount of time and make the same amount of money, but with much less risk.Something I learned from playing the cashflow game is that sometimes it's easier to get out of the rat race with a lower income.

Once we removed the sheet-rocked ceiling, we found the original horse-hair plaster and wood lath ceiling.

You need to sacrifice now in order to escape the rat race and live a better future.
