I recently finished law school, and would like to use any cashflow from future real estate holdings to supplement my income from my day job as a lawyer.Since I don't have any plans to leave my day job (in energy law and policy), I think the buy-and-hold strategy appeals to me most.

My goal is to supplement my pension upon retirement by creating enough cash flow to sustain my family without having to lose quality time with them.I am eager to learn and look forward to engaging investors here.

I'm engaged to be married next year and I want to supplement my job income with real estate income so that I can spend more time with my soon-to-be family.  

I'm currently working full-time as a Mechanical Engineer, but I want to learn about the possibilities of supplementing that income with investing.

Does the city and county provide any supplemental support?

Our goal is to generate supplemental income overtime but its also important to us that the property value appreciates over time too. 

As much as I'd like to begin supplementing my income, one or even two C class buildings wouldn't be able to do that for me. 

Short term: I'm trying to help my dad get enough supplemental income that he can quit his salaried job and focus full time on his farm land/hunting property business. 

All of my Myrtle Beach friends don't rent or only rent to supplement.

As a little background on myself I am a tax consultant by trade (applying for my CPA license in January), and want to build my real estate portfolio that will provide solid cash-flows to supplement my earnings and accelerate my retirement.How do you estimate operating ans capital expenditures on a month-by-month basis to determine NOI?
