Oh look, you get to deduct your cell phone, your internet, your tax prep, all kinds of other things regular people don’t. 

I know there are a lot of professionals in the suburb that I am looking that need a place to meet clients but don't necessarily want to go to their downtown offices regularly.

Without knowing the nature of your partnerships it’s tough to say specifically.

That strategy is not going to work at all. 99 percent of agents don't even know or understand seller financing and will just think it's a scam (which it is most times these calls come in since the caller has no money and therefore is irrelevant to a regular homeowner).

Regular mortgage.

If you have a stable asset, predictable returns, and a lease structure that’s well-known and well-documented, a regular market valuation might make sense.

Great information from regular, experienced contributors whose opinions I value.

I think it is human nature to feel like we need to get the best deal with the best/highest "immediate return".

I’m in northern New Hampshire where we regularly get to -20 degrees during January and February.

Focus on quality over quantity and regularly reassess your portfolio and strategies to stay aligned with financial independence goals.Good luck!
