You'll pay a premium for their other stuff to supplement your core materials, but that's fine.

Not going to sugar coat it.

To me cashflow is important to cover unexpected expenses but I buy for wealth creation and tax benefit, not to supplement my income.

We believe it it very valuable for protection, legacy planning, education planning, long-term care perhaps, and as a supplement to our investment portfolio.  

For the last 1/2 year I have been full time on the real estate and working part time as supplemental income.

Experience is suppose to be a supplement to your screening process it is not suppose to be the only screening process.  

It is amazing to have a place to supplement that space so you aren’t so hard pressed to get another property when the numbers aren’t right. 

So many of these agents posting sugar coated fake numbers. 

Supplement this far simpler entity approach by ensuring you have appropriate types and levels of insurance, you operate your business in a manner in which your conduct is not considered an exclusion in your policy, you work with licensed and insured vendors, you execute contracts with indemnification clauses with these same vendors/ require additional insured status &  maintain appropriate licensing and permits.

I know experience is the most important but I'd like to supplement it with self education.
