A crash can be great for us REI debtors.

There may be a lot of challenging issues with heir's or beneficiaries or debtor claims and you don't know what the circumstances are..Good luck...

Sometimes, there’s even newer construction being built right after nearby causing the home values of the existing properties to drop and rental numbers as there is always someone with better access to debt or lower acceptable margins than you.

If your protection is “limited” as the title implies with LLC, (Limited Liability Company) and CA is a horrible state for litigation and taxes, and judges give very little respect to elaborate asset protection schemes to protect debtors (you), what option do you have?

This indicates you either have a ton of debt or a small income (i'm guessing small income) more insecurity"we're getting there but by that time it'll more than likely be too late to build the wealth I would like for us" This indicates either ignorance or impatience/immaturity on your part (don't mean it harshly).

LOL – This will be that shock factor needed for them to understand that with a beat up house and unemployed debtor (seller), that $37000 judgment aint worth more than $800.

The Debt is against the original debtor, personally.  

Do they have debt or are these free and clear?

Both parties have the ability, if push comes to shove, to pay off the debt or refinance, if the other party breaches that trust. 

So I for one think the 30k number in 20 years is a very realistic number to have to live a very nice lifestyle as long as you have no debt or minimal debt. health insurance auto insurance TAx on your home and utls food clothing etc is going to run folks at least 5 to 7k a month.. so what great life is one going to have on 3k a month.
