I am religious about checking and maintenance on the decks, stairs and railings just so I don't have a guest issue.

I'm in a bit of a unique situation in that I'm a California resident and can only invest in properties all-cash for religious reasons.I'm not able to use leverage/loans, and I know and accept that investing all cash is not common, but thats the way I do it. 

I am not incentivized by them so I can be forthcoming with my experience and provide you with my honest feedback about the community.My journey towards multifamily investing started like most of this community, listening to and reading Bigger Pockets content religiously.

Save religiously, improve your credit, and pay off any outstanding debts you may owe. 

Although we both agree we need to start prepping and are excited to make our decisions, my husband is very religious about not leveraging our primary home for other investments.

Other people may have issues with it for religious reasons, or have teens along who may get their hands on it before the adults even know it's there, etc. 

Now to figure out how to delete this one...I have been a 10+ year mint.com user and religiously track my expenses.

It’s great that you're exploring private equity as an alternative to traditional lending due to your religious considerations.

You can go to Chamber of Commerce meetings, if you belong to a religious organization that’s a great way to network.

It was totally weird he had one room full of religious items and one room full of tapes toys and magazines.
