I think you can model a decent double digit return but how do you transition to actually pulling money out? 

One PM company I dealt with back in San Diego... thankfully not in OC... buried costs for advertising and re-leasing in their contracts.

I am financially free (8 digit net worth snd expect to achieve 9 before i die) but never see myself stopping the pursuit of more wealth.  

You anticipate that the winners provide much more profit than the losers, and you end up with a portfolio that produces a double digit return + a “salary” for your active participation over time.

Hey Chris, a few thoughts here.Considering that office is not attached to the house, I wouldn’t add any footage to the total home square footage; however, you could advertise that office space and amount of footage and amenities in your remarks.If you’re a Realtor or are using one for the sale, your local MLS may have fields dedicated to additional footage for other buildings on the property, such as ADU’s.The other point is that typically, perhaps depending upon location, a space needs to have heating to count in the square footage, which this office doesn’t have if I understand correctly.Consider contacting an appraiser to inquire about how they would handle this space on an appraisal, or a Realtor.

As of today, May 19, 2024, he is advertising a single family house for sale in Rosedale (Queens), NY for $250k, while stating that it will be a short sale once a prospective buyer makes and offer that's accepted by the seller after providing proof of funds. 

If you have substantial (usually means 5 digits or more) donations, tax planning opportunities can get very complex.

Quote from @Spencer OBrien: Quote from Srutowski: also, if you could at least send me his current contact info and let me know how he is advertising or how he got a hold of you that would be great.
