Everyone has the right to write about their experience but I would be more inclined to pay attention to the review of someone who has been playing video games for years than the person in your example who purchased their first Xbox with no past experience.

Actually considering if there is a play to build or buy an app.

I plan on starting out next year with a small plug and play solution to have minimum risk.

For me I feel shifting to real estate is the right play which is why we made the pivot last summer, but I am open to other perspectives.

My fiance and I are in a unique situation as I play baseball professionally, and she works online and plans to live with me during my season.

I have yet to do a 1031 exchange or a cost segregation study (I'd like to see how this plays out long term when selling or doing a 1031 exchange into a different property) or expense business travel/mastermind/classes. 

@Shiloh Lundahl I will do value add specifically with ADU development, so I am tracking permits to find other ADU developments and overall inventory growth to find a competitive edge with supplying demand in areas lacking larger residential developers aka "the middle housing"@Arlem Garcia Interesting, Tariffs will play a big role in supply chains, so it will be interesting to see how governments come to resolutions@Henry Clark Absolutely, imo gone are the days of investing for cashflow or appreciation, now it's about aligning long-term strategies with lifestyle 

Jennfer,How did your NW Houston CPA search play out? 

Still, I think you'd find it difficult to find one that would be a good long-term investment unless you had another ~20-30 years to go, it's at least cash neutral, and you don't plan to hold it too long (to avoid too much investment loss and before you get to the point where it's unsellable because of too few years left); that's another way of saying that maybe it suits your cash needs in the near-term or is at least less of a pill to swallow than other options until you find something that's more of a sensible long-term play

Our current focus is for a family lakehouse / lifestyle play here in TN but would like to work my way into commercial properties, short-term rental facilities, business acquisitions to name a few.
