For me, I want a steady income in retirement to supplement my pension. 

but the pay is poor and I'm trying to supplement income with rental properties.

Hi, I'm starting out with rental property investing (first one is under contract, SFR on the Eastern Shore) and I'm looking into wholesaling as a way to supplement my income from my job and use it to fund more investments. 

A little about myself, I’m currently an operations manager at a company with around a six figure salary which I’ve been supplementing as an agent for the past 4-5 years. 

People looking for supplemental income or new demographics.

Do those of you that use this platform feel it provides everything I will need from an accounting standpoint or do you find you need to supplement it to ensure you are well prepared and organized for tax time?

My reasons for pursuing real estate investing are just to balance out my retirement options, essentially supplementing my income with rental agreements.       

The amount of time it takes for solar panels to pay for themselves is about eight years and that depends on your location, your use, your maintenance costs, and any subsidies provided by the politicians that like to steal money from the masses to supplement your "free" energy.I personally have family with solar in California and the costs are significantly higher than they anticipated so their payoff will be quite a bit longer than they were promised.

Luckily, this can be supplemented by the previous owners history in SOME circumstances.

If they do not have any you are likely buying into a complex that is expecting to provide their owners supplemental bills for all large cap ex charges (I know someone who recently got one to replace all the windows in the complex).In general, I will take appreciation over initial cash flow for any long term hold.
