Paying off rental mortgages increases monthly cash flow but reduces liquidity, while investing in hard money lending offers high returns but is taxed as ordinary income.Buying a multi-unit rental provides tax benefits like depreciation, while purchasing a business can yield strong profits but requires active management.
