I may want to keep working or I may want to go RE Professional at that point but either way I want time to play with grandkids, to travel and to enjoy life while I’m still healthy enough to do it.I see so many people who wait until 65 to retire and by then they can’t get around well enough to do what they’ve always dreamed of or they have a spouse with serious medical problems that can’t go anywhere.

That way if I do not want to sell then and interest rates rise I still have a healthy spread for return putting new debt in place.If you can try to negotiate a 5/5 with a ceiling.

You need a healthy cashflow margin. $1 is not enough.

I want to live a healthy lifestyle focused on more outdoor activities such as running, hiking, and skiing. 

My goal would be to look for the rents to slowly rise over the time owned which is typical for all parts of the country assuming healthy economy.

This house caught on fire so I was hoping that since it was in tough shape, I could buy low and turn it into a healthy return.

I do a mix of short and long term rentals for a balance of increased cash flow and stability in an appreciating market.I would also consider lending that money out for someone else to do the heavy lifting on solid deals and make a healthy return.

My perspective on this is as a married DIY landlord in Pittsburgh, across the Commonwealth.I've watched this life wear people down to nubs, destroy seemingly healthy marriages, even cause the children of the DIYers to try to commit suicide.

Just make sure to leave a healthy emergency fund and don't use your best case scenario numbers.I have run into problems with the BRRR strategy because of my debt to income ratio.  

Price on office and retail right now are very attractive versus history.Multifamily and industrial are seeing healthy demand, however prices have skyrocketed and supply growth is rapidly escalating.
