Although I've been bingeing on BP podcasts & Rich Dad books, this is my first post.I'm married, dad to 4 boys, closer to retirement than I care to acknowledge, looking to build strong steady retirement income over the next 2 or 3 years.In advance THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR EXPERIENCE AND YOUR ADVICE.My question is directed to everyone, but especially to those who have already created significant positive passive cash flow for themselves.QUESTION TO YOU - IF YOU HAD $475,000 CASH TO INVEST ...Drawing on everything you know, your successes, your mistakes, IF YOU WERE STARTING AT SQUARE ONE, how would you allocate / invest $475,000 cash in order to generate the highest ROI and greatest amount of net cash flow?

I have a public debt fund dedicated to real estate that a partner and I have not activated in Georgia because we do not have an operations partner on the ground yet.And of course I am always looking for people who want to allocated some of their investment dollars to real estate, especially internationally right now, more specifically Belize.

Are expenses during the year for the duplex allocated between all units including the owner occupied unit?

If the answer is yes - a portion of the purchase should have been allocated to the home and a portion allocated to the purchase of the vacant land.The sale of the vacant lot will be subject to capital gains tax.is the property located in Oregon or Washington?

Also, 5% is a low allocation for vacancy.

If you need a visual, go to any amortization table and see how each month the interest and principal is allocated, and how it shifts after year 5, 10, 20....and so forth. 

Allocation of the purchase price was determined by the buyer.

Your allocation should be 50% in any of the top 10 cryptos by market cap, then 30% in the top 25, and 20% in the top 100.

.$50k isn't much, so leverage is probably key...but that doesn't mean you can't allocate to multiple areas...for example, hire a marketing firm and build your campaign for off-market properties...and leverage bank money on a buy-and-hold.

In my case, I allocate funds to buy the property and then I sell on Lease Option to a Tenant Buyer and get $20k to $25k from them.
