It will depend on your goals (leave a large inheritance versus spending your money over your lifetime) but your portfolio likely will be generating average returns in the 6-8% range while retired and if you're only withdrawing 4%, even after factoring in inflation you're really not spending down your nest egg.

It will depend on your preferences and how well you think you will tolerate having a room mate as you approach a new life with your partner.

Hello @Alex Silang,It depends on your goal.

Thanks For Texting check out Launch Control, Lead Sherpa, REI Reply, ROOR or Textedly - Just depends on volume and sophistication you need. 

Depending on what you are trying to achieve, there may be some other lenders I could suggest. 

So the answer really boils down to "it depends"

Just depends on the situation/scenario.

Deduct NEW property taxes after you buyDeduct home insurance costsDeduct maintenance percentage, typically 10%Deduct vacancy+tenant nonperformance percentage(we recommend 5% for Class A, 10% Class B, 20% Class C, good luck with Class D)Deduct whatever dollar/percentage of cashflow you wantNow, what you have left over is the amount for debt service.Enter it into a mortgage calculator, with current interest rate for an investment property, to determine your maximum mortgage amount.Divide the mortgage amount by either 75% or 80%, depending on the required down payment percentage - this is your tentative price to offer.If the property needs repairs, you'll want to deduct 110%-120% of the estimated repairs from this amount.Be sure to also research the ARV and make sure it's 10-20% higher than your tentative purchase price.As long as the ARV checks out, this is the purchase price to offer.It is probably significantly below the asking price.

It all depends on what your requirement for cash flow is.

I've had smooth loans close with Kiavi and I've had rough ones, same with Roc.When Loans start to be troublesome:1) The borrowing entity docs are a mess2) The appraisal numbers are lower than expected3) Messy background reports4) Loans happening in an environment where market/rate fluctuating unpredictably 5) Your loan officer and their team are poor at their job6) Title issues that depend on county docs, that can be slow and painfulThere's more but it's Friday and I'm tired....
