As someone in my twenties, I heavily rely on the capacity for communication that technology has given us; but I do not think it should entirely replace face to face relationships.

The book says twelve years more which would be a total of twenty years, the math checks out

Growing up in the midwest, I saw the wear winters cause to homes.Most of the things that you mentioned in the house that is "falling apart" are things that are usually at or near the end of their lifespan for a twenty-year-old house anywhere.If the house was your primary residence for at least two of the last five years you may qualify for a tax exclusion up to $250,000 single/$500,000 couple.

I have a seller who wants to sell 3 duplexes at 140K each where I would buy outright... finance with a bank either separately or all together on a commercial loan and 2 duplexes at 25K down at 5.5% for twenty years where he wants to do a land contract.

In my town we have purchased rentals for as low as twenty five hundred dollars and rent them for 950 no problem. 

The mentality of risking someone you loves money can be very...well think of like twenty negative words and they’d all probably fit to complete that sentence.

Sure I've heard about dollar cost averaging and if you're in your twenties or thirties that might be a very viable way to invest in the stock market, but I'm in my later years and I'm not going to have the time to average a big-*** decline that's coming in the next year or two. many people just entering the market for the first time would be wisest to sit on the sidelines it's always at the peak of a market where the newbies get creamed.My treasuries have outperformed the s&p 500 in this past year and there's a lot of big investors like Warren Buffett are sitting on the sidelines with loads of cash.

If anything was left by the tenant and later found, it shall be stored and/or disposed of by the landlord as per law.Security Deposit: As per agreement and as required by law (RCW 59.18.280) within twenty-one (21) days after the termination of the rental agreement and vacation of the premises or the landlord’s learning that the property has been abandoned, the landlord shall mail to the tenant’s last known address a full and specific statement of the basis for retaining any of the deposit together with the payment of the refund due the tenant under the terms and conditions of the rental agreement.

Been a landlord for twenty years on my duplex in the next town over, so I'm very familiar with the rental side of things.I could easily rent a house there and call it a day but I want to turn this two year job into an opportunity to do better than that.

You probably won't listen; I certainly didn't, twenty years ago, when I was told the exact same thing.
