I got another job opportunity in Omaha and we moved back.Before we moved, we toyed with the idea of keeping our Phoenix house as a rental, but ultimately decided to sell it, netting a little over $70,000.We have used some of that money to pay off student loans, and other debt.

I always toy with the idea of investing in a vacation rental property in Cabo, but I am always hesitant to pull the trigger.

When you learn masonry in a country that only has masonry structures you can do it all.As for siding, we toyed with that idea on the back, problem is that will cost you because of the cement anchor bolts- and if you are already facing problems with the brick it may very well not hold even if done right.Last renovation done ... 3 months before the Titanic sank.

You may want to charge a little higher rate to cover cleaning carpet more frequently, plumber for when toy gets flushed and toilet clogged, etc.

No reimbursement other than keeping her security deposit.Here is a recent one (we took 3 of these out) & if it wasn't for the tree roots the socks & toys would have flushed all the way through.

I realize that the taxes are not "taken out of the IRA" but I am considering the fact that in order to make a $100k contribution to a ROTH (if that were even possible which it is not due to the $5k limit, 10k married), you would need to make $100k and that would be taxable at your marginal federal and state tax levels (which for example purposes were at 35%).Now at the end of the period of 20 yeras, the $65k grew to X amount and the $100k traditional IRA grew to Y amount.

Something this simple can save you from having to pay $4000 to replace a sewer line that the tenant’s children stuffed toys in.

Most do default to yes and then the investors can make a call on their 1040

@Alex Bekeza  I have been toying with firing up my NMLS and State of Oregon license currently they are current for CE but inactive.. 

Lo and behold, their young kids had flushed some small plastic toys down a toilet and they caused an obstruction that led to continual clogs.
