I unfortunately self financed so my funds are tied up in this one house. 

I sourced the property off market and secured seller financing, and I also self manage it as an Airbnb host with nothing but 5 star reviews.

Like others in the post, interest income is portfolio income.What you can do is invest a self directed IRA/roth and put this money into notes.

@Kyle Kline“Investing for equity and not cash flow” doesn’t mean “buy properties that don’t cash flow.”To me, invest for equity not cash flow means that the PRIMARY reason to invest is for equity growth and an increase in net worth and NOT cash flow.I’ve been investing for over 40 years and while cash flow is important, it’s not why invest.A property must be self supporting ie produce enough cash flow to cover debt service, operational expenses including repairs and replacements.

@Jaren Woeppel , after looking at the available local options, we continue to self-manage although we export a number of tasks, ie. answering the phone.

A lot of people under-estimate how much work is involved with owning real estate, especially if you go the route of self-managing.

Do you self manage?

It's to easy to dig a hole for your self on good intentions.

They also each get a roll of toilet paper and are expected to self re-stock.

With management or attempting OOS self-managing?
