I've used to it myself to analyze all of the 35 units I bought over the last few years and personally talked to 100's of other investors who've analyzed and closed on great deals using it.I'd love for you to actually try it and would be happy to receive and incorporate any feedback you have into future releases.

You are a high w2 earner, The house is worth 110k today, you are buying from your grandma for 60k in exchange for free rent for life, upside ARV of 200k.The costs of owning the house will help provide tax relief on your high w2 earnings, you are buying a great chunk of equity that will pay off in the future, and you and your grandma are doing each other solids. 

Building good relationships with tenants and professionals while planning for future scaling opportunities can also help you grow sustainably.Good luck!

But this will also lead to future inflation.The issue is going to be the rich will get richer as they can live with lower cash flow but gain appreciation.

congrats. to many more projects in the near future. best of luck on your journey

Instead:401(k) loans: They’re low-interest, and you’re paying yourself back.Roth rollovers If you can afford the taxes now, this gives future flexibility.Creative financing: I’ve seen clients leverage partnerships or seller financing to limit retirement fund withdrawals.One thing to consider: real estate markets today are vastly different from a decade ago.. so opportunities may require extra creativity.Have you looked into specific deals yet?

Getting a FincenID makes it easy if you have more than one or expect future updates. 

It is not really apples to apples, but generally speaking the more money invested the further ahead you will be eventually in the future, just because your compounding base is higher, regardless of where the money comes from - ie, 4 300k properties are 1.2 million on property, which is double the 600k property.

It does however give you a degree of independence to choose what you want to do.As your portfolio grows you'll also feel the weight of future capex responsibility more, which ironically points you to growing more cash flow through more real estate.The other issue is that you are chasing a moving goalpost.
