I want a modest rental property portfolio as a retirement vessel for us as well as cashflow to insulate us from an economic downturn (job loss/injury/etc), and I'm wrestling with myself trying to find the best way to utilize this 80 grand I have access to. 

Workers get a per diem of $35 a day, $10 for lunch and $25 for dinner, that's it.The company tells their workers where they are going to stay, period.The work these people do is cleaning out pressure vessels before inspectors, welders, and other people go in. 

Thanks foe you input.

Could check the air bnb laws foe yoIr state.

I'm just confused about how the difference between what you have into the house versus what you refinance it for turns into a vessel for repeating the process to buy your second deal.Thank you.

In my area you can buy/build a home foe similar money as renting.

This is not my only retirement vessel as I work a full-time job that I pay Into a pension for.

I have seen figurative explosions and popped blood vessels!

@Richard Sherman I plan on living in one of the sides for the duration of the year that you have to let mature for the FHA loan, this also gives me an empty vessel so I am able to make my repairs without working around someone.

Thanks Jon,Do you like the home/land packages dealers sell or do you look foe your own land?
