I'd really like to get to twenty.

The goal is GDP.Consider to the increase in population of tax payers over twenty years.

Eight to argue, one to get a continuance, one to object, one to demur, two to research precedents, one to dictate a letter, one to stipulate, five to turn in their time cards, one to depose, one to write interrogatories, two to settle, one to order a secretary to change the bulb, and twenty-eight to bill for professional services.Q: Where can you find a good lawyer?

Helped build a house growing up, worked some construction in my twenties and house hacked my first home.

Eliminate short-term-itis by asking yourself what's the viability of the property to continue providing that free-and-clear cash flow for the next twenty years within your estimated free-and-clear cash flow.

If I were in my twenties I would be headed to Buffalo, Columbus and other spots where you can buy a house, find cheap commercial properties and make a mark fast.  

@Nicky Gonzalez in my experience twenty-five percent down is a requirement for investment property loans.

It's definitely better late than never, though if I had started in my early twenties, I would have more time to dig those rabbit holes instead of going out and partying with friends (haha).

I've already learned a bit just clicking around the forums here on BP in the last twenty minutes.

Twenty-five (25) units rented and less than half paying.
