@Owen Dashner thanks for the kind words, the "grey hair" generation such as yourself has been instrumental in my progress! 

Treasuries will go "no bid" and there will be a collapse of confidence in both (i) the U.S. dollar, and (ii) U.S. treasury debt instruments [bills / bonds / etc].When this financial inflection point comes, you do not want to own assets who's values are directly tied and leveraged to the yield on U.S. treasury debt instruments (specifically commercial real estate where most market participants are max leveraged).

Biggerpockets was instrumental in my journey towards financial freedom.

CA has the AITD  and its a robust  debt instrument that is designed for these transactions.

@Benny Dadlani Large student housing complexes rent by the bedroom, but that's an entirely different model, unsuitable for single-family home investors IMO.

I'm also managing another Airbnb property, which has been instrumental in refining my property management skills, and I’m considering expanding into more property management.

I personally dont know where title insurance comes into play with these either if your not recording a debt instrument and then getting a lenders Alta

Your breakdown makes perfect sense and is actually the exact way I currently view the DST financial instrument.

Still would wait on refi's too, but good to see the blunt instrument beating the RE market has been put back in the closet.

I would argue that you can only save a finite amount of money when aggressively paying off the mortgage, but you have a much higher potential increase to your assets and wealth by taking that extra principle and reinvesting it into other investment instruments.
