The only thing I will say is Jacksonville has had rents drop in many areas, so you're not alone in having the same property rent for less today than it did in previous years.

But, today, most judges are requiring a GAL anyway.

While these advisory services are required as part of the day to day, self performing those and diverting that as income is not going to be significant enough to help cover living expenses early on unless you are jumping into large projects.

If you change the system today then you can see what the bill is with a new system from March 1- March 31st.

While Pace Morby seems to know his stuff, he puts out incredibly long videos and I didn't have time to sort through all that fluff & didn't want to pay 8k to be in his course. 

And people are fast to panic, to turn on others, to talk smack.

Yea they would keep that in place and you'd get a second position mortgage for the rest at, well, higher than todays rates.

If the answer is yes, then it's a no brainer to make minimum payments on your 2.8% interest rate mortgage, and use the funds that you would have paid extra to pay it down faster, to either invest in more real estate, the market, or anywhere else where you can get a ROI > 2.8%.If the answer is no, then feel free to aggressively pay it down as fast as possible, to become debt-free faster, and just have a large amount of money in savings or to splurge with.The bottom line is that your 2.8% mortgage is GOOD debt.

However, from a real world day to day experience it's a totally different animal.

Maintenance is one of the biggest challenges, maybe even #1, in the Property Management industry.Seems maintenance is, Never Fast Enough for Tenants, or Cheap Enough for Owners!
