As a disabled person, I want to be in real estate, but I know I am limited. 

Congratulations on the duplex -My investor clients have acquired several multi-family investment properties locally in the market I operate in Northwest Indiana - Figure out your personal investment objective for the next 4 years and align yourself with the next property that make sense in this current market environment-

Ask your employer if you can have your pay split up into three deposits, one to investments savings, one to your checking account for personal use on a daily basis, and one to an emergency account you can tap into so you don't have to tap into your investment savings.

what kind of investment was/is this  a little more detail may protect others if you think this person is a financial predator.  

Apparently, the person I am under contract with was managing the estate of the actual owner who recently died.  

K1s show your share of income or losses from the partnership, and you include it on your respective personal tax returns.Now, to your partners.

Yea this is a long-term personal play more than a strict STR deal. 

However, you can get loans that are based on the performance of the rental and not your personal income and debt.

Also, long term, I expect Sac will enact tougher restrictions on STR, given the intense housing crunch we're experience, so I personally don't expect that to a be a good long term strategy.

Networking is the key to growth...I am always down for coffee if you want to connect in person.
