What if you could secure your next property before selling your current one—without the stress?

I assumed that was a good thing and the 5% K&T wasn't a problem since everything was working correctly and safely.

I have zero stress having the systems in place with the proper people in place to manage my day to day operations.

Again, and I cannot stress this enough, I am NOT a tax expert on this so you need to talk to a professional.

My primary motivation is to ensure my dad doesn’t have to worry about financial stress after retirement.

Renting and eating the loss is a gamble on future rent increases, but the market and high costs might not make it worth the stress.

IE if you are wanting to wholesale which I don;t reco today, its too hard, you want a list of high equity owners BUT BUT the value is in figuring out a source of stress, a reason why the owner is on the virge of wanting to sell. 

Also, depending on your long term goals, transitioning part of your portfolio into more passive investments might help reduce operational stress while keeping your equity working for you.

Until then, don't stress.

.: I get what you are trying to do and protect, but this is a very slippery slope to get into....In the veterinary field we see this all the time....upset clients going on social media and trying to destroy vets and clinics..... and a lot of the time post complete bullsh$t and inaccurate accounts of the situation.
