If you are still following the post, I have a question.I read in The Self-Directed IRA Handbook by Mat Sorensen (a book recommended in another thread) that if one is purchasing for example rental real estate utilizing a loan, one may need to transact it with a non-recourse loan and put 30%-40% down or at least 60%-70% debt-to-equity which I believe would be the same thing in an accurately priced property.If true, that would hurt the cash on cash return I would imagine.

So, with that, figure out what you want your life to look like and the pick an investment strategy that will work with how you want your days to look.Beyond that, my two cents is that its easier to do now than it is once your strapped with a mortgage of your own, a spouse, kids, etc.

I'm familiar with Mat through his marketing / speaking and will reach out to him and his crew for a consult.

My neighbor broke his briefcase strap at seven in the morning.

Strap in...It's going to be a bumpy ride.

If you have few (1-3) properties with little equity and/or are financially strapped…insurance and proper management.

Dare we venture into........ bath mats?!?!?!  

BUT, the tenant (who takes great care of the place), is very vocal about being financially strapped.

A late thank you Mat.
