Income Levels: Will your AGI decrease in future years below the $150,000 threshold?

To wit, people might find this thread and exchange for years to come (I am cognizant of that future audience as I write this).

I don't think the future will be kind to the investors who bought cheap houses in a big community of other investors. 

Letting someone out of the lease is not the same as nullifying that the lease ever occurred; it is just an agreement that you won't go after any additional months of future rents that would otherwise be owed.

From what you’ve described, it sounds like you’re more focused on long-term appreciation and future benefits rather than immediate cash flow.

It is something I am interested in doing in the future, potentially even this year, but I am curious how to put concrete numbers to this decision.  

An independent Fannie and Freddie has the power to incentivize/create lending products necessary to boost the future housing stock.

One question for the community is: What are the next best steps I should take to further educate myself and get started in this industry to set myself up for future success?

Not sure of housing in 2025 and future.

Having a co-signer doesn't feel like that at first, but you can't predict the future.
