With Class C, some of the tenants you get have section 8 vouchers which is good because you get guaranteed rent (but managing section 8 tenants is a whole separate topic altogether)4.

So how many tenants do you have altogether in the 8 properties?

That went on for about 5 years and I was able to sell a few and refi most of the remaining portfolio and ditch the painting altogether.

The Biden administration has also stated they wish to eliminate single family zoning altogether.

Give 100% cut to an exp agent and that would still be a lower income than 50% to a Compass agent, and we know that those splits are not what the actual average is.The fact that you are so adament that agents who sell $1.4m make more money than agents who sell $7m, tell me that EXP is a cult, because you are completely abandoning reason and math altogether.

I think it would also be important for individual investors to hold on to more cash in the event of a recession, but that doesn't mean to hoard it or stop investing altogether; just increase the reserve amount a little.

Inheritance tax is another topic altogether but not one I personally will experience!!

Ironically (and this is an altogether higher level discussion), the Federal Reserve actually removes real liquidity (US Treasury's) from the system when it performs its monetary operations.
