-25 years old, unmarried, no children. 

Hi everyone,I am new to the USA and looking to invest in property with a long term goal to eventually replace part of my W2 income and also pave the way for my children to get a easier start in life.At the moment I am renting with an intention to buy a single family home this year.In a addition I have other cash - not much - that is sitting in a interest bearing account growing very slowly.

B grade property walks are attended by my children to run around and tell me which bedrooms they would pick if it was their home.43605, 43608, 43609 are the popular zipcodes for bottom-budget value purchases...I manage a ton in these areas and my personal portfolio contained over 40 43608 properties at the peak. 20% of these properties will be crazy money earners, 20% will be astounding money pits, and 60% will fare average.I have evolved into the nicer 43612/43613 for my personal portfolio and find the properties earn consistently and far smoother than my 43608 houses. ($80k renting for $1200 vs $40k renting for $800 multiplied by the ratio above vs boring consistency of the nicer area) Oh and I have zero excitement for apartments.

Any help would be super appreciated.Thank you I started my real estate journey by house-hacking a duplex in Southern Orchards next to Nationwide Children’s Hospital.

The background: My husband is a professional homebuilder and we'd like to have more flexibility (we have several very young children) in his workday. 

Tenants will bring in family members who are temporarily/permanently homeless, single moms will bring in new boyfriends, daughters who produce children will have a tendency to drop their offspring off with grandma and grandpa to raise, etc.. 

One of the groups viewing our house let their children have free range in our home.

Bouncy house workers comb the skies ready to evacuate children if it gets too hairy. 

I think @Scott Trench brings up a great point when he says "Many investors who don't know what that inflection point is will continually leverage thirsting for more, and ultimately wish they’d listened to Dave", but I plan on borrowing until the grave if the numbers make sense for my children and grandchildren.

Your IRA will be listed as the owner on the deed.Not tax implications for rolling over to another qualified account.awesome, good feedback and wondering why a "custodial" it says for children while searching online
