Properties don’t make money; how you manage them does. 

Explore my personal favorites, Set For Life by Scott Trench or The Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey, for invaluable financial insights.3.

I would like to put my money to work instead of shoveling my money into the bank (mortgage) or to a landlord (renting).

But real estate will pay you money today and real estate will pay you even MORE money tomorrow. 

@Tom HallAt 7% if you can I would pay it down as investing it net after tax gains may not get you the 7% you are paying - so it’s less riskDownside is you lose liquidity of that money as it’s tied in your propertyIf rates come down in future you can refinance and even take some of the cash out.Regarding your question are rates coming down, a lot of factors come into play but right now it does not appear there will be significant changes to rates over next 3-6 months.

Bob is very good on the customer support and that being said... they are the only company other than myself that I have invested with  basically EVER... as I do my own deals.But I had money stacking up in my SDRA and of course I can't self deal.. so I chose one of his new investments which is more akin to what I like.. quicker turn and high IRR...

The main Real Estate one, On The Market, and BP Money are some of my favorites, but I also listen to the Rookie show when the topics are interesting. 

Collections are where the game is won or lost, and without proactive management, even the prettiest property can bleed money. 

Don’t talk money yet.  

Or J Scott did a great episode on BP Money with @Scott Trench and @Mindy Jensen all about investing in syndications.
