I will have about 30k accessible to invest upon retiring in October 2023 and I’m also interested in accessing the equity either in my rental or primary houses.

I agree with those you posted about the problems of poisons, hazardous to pets and also can result in rotting carcasses in inaccessible places.

and forget about that 60k mercedes all you RE brokers drive those will cost you 120 to 150k  plus the 90k for the ten year right to use the roads.This is what makes the US great... all in all when you factor in access to medical, police and government stability.. many parts of the US are the cheapest non 3rd world places to live anywhere in the world..  

It's a better long term investment and a way to get into an otherwise inaccessible neighborhood due to the loan products available to you as an owner occupant. 

I'm pretty sure I mentioned in my podcast for BP how my last business partner spent thousands of hours creating this amazing GUI (graphical user interface) in Access.

We have a number of out of state groups are without their own education that have expressed interest in accessing this as well. 

From the termite inspector, there doesn't appear to be active termites, but there are "Evidence of termites staining, partial shelter tubes observed sheetrock in closet by front door and in access panel to tub".

I'm fortunate that I travel there about monthly for work, so while it's out of state it's not inaccessible for me.

When the property sells you're stilllooking for indemnification,being made whole, any amounts received in access can be required to go back to the borrower or they can sue you for it.
