@Peter NiermanWelcome.I think the complexity of your arrangement is bolstered by the fact that there appears to be loads of 'funny money' floating around.

The numbers are as follows:Current estimated value: $240-250kCurrent mortgage amount: $160kCurrent rent estimate: $1700-1800 monthlyMy 50% rule of thumb was simply my way of easing concerns about allocating for expenses while bolstering our reserves.

But, in my opinion, the primary benefit of financing is positive leverage (increase the returns from the asset), and you can only get positive leverage on an income producing asset, not a non-income producing asset (at least not directly).So, while there's nothing wrong with not financing anything, in my opinion, if you're going to finance something, it should be your income producing assets where the financing can bolster your returns.

Chairman Bair added, "The FDIC will continue its work on the LLP and will be prepared to offer it in the future as an important tool to cleanse bank balance sheets and bolster their ability to support the credit needs of the economy." ### -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- there's no doubt in my feeble mind this FRAUD will drive the books for a while, though everyone in it knows how this will end one day in the future.

I want to bolster my retirement funds while also making money for day-to-day living expenses.

The fact they apparently haven't updated the website since 2015 would not bolster my confidence. 

I plan to have some flips in there that will help bolster my day job until Real Estate becomes my day job. :)

The city, along with its surrounding areas, is experiencing rapid growth, bolstered by a burgeoning job market, ensuring a steady stream of renters.Jacksonville: Jacksonville is a close second, primarily due to its affordability.

I understand the two worlds concept, but I also see my 9-5 every day previously not generating any income, if I can turn that into even a handful of deals a year I should be able to bolster my investment account and become more informed and connected while doing so.  

You can bolster that with the income from your current 10 unit property but now you're playing the valuation game with an appraiser.
