I’m going to flip houses to supplement my income from being an agent and looking to use 100% of my flip profits to buy rental property.

I am working on making this something to supplement my retirement and pass on to my kids to continue.

I've been toying with the idea of getting into rentals as some more supplemental income, and although I've struggled with the math as far as justification, i believe the main reasons folks here by rentals (please correct if I'm wrong) are: Cashflow (although I've seen people do deals eg on Roofstock for only $100-200/mo) + appreciation (when sold) + taxesSo assuming I'm correct there, then the potential tax benefits are 30% of the reason to do rentals.

No place in my business plans for supplementing tenants rent when taking on inherited tenants.

Continue to immerse yourself in education, listen to every podcast with supplemental reading.

If you buy right and manage right you can absolutely be profitable and supplement your income with one property.

Some day I will need to step out of public schools (I teach shop, so I like hands on work) and I'd love to have real estate supplement my income. 

After talking to a few people about thier friends that started real estate investing in the same position as i am, most of them used credit to start off until they aquired the capital where they didnt need it anymore, or it was more of a supplement.

I provide some coaching and mentoring but mostly for people who have a job or own their own business but want to invest on the side for supplemental income.

My thoughts on this are that you are going to live SOMEWHERE anyway, and you will probably pay SOMETHING anyway - so why not get tenants to supplement that.
