It just feels like I’ve been making a lot of short term sacrifices for long term gains and I have to be really diligent with money management. or I could also just try to borrow money for the renovation, and pay off the line of credit over time, but I feel like that really would limit me and if the stock market(my collateral) went down I could also see some trouble.

This allows you to invest in another property while maintaining the asset.Alternatively, a 1031 exchange lets you defer capital gains taxes by reinvesting in higher-yielding or diversified properties. 1031 has limitations.

Very large out-of-pocket medical expenses are also part of this game.Balance gains and losses on your investments.

This community is a great place to gain knowledge, connect, and share experiences.

I get the frustrations of laundry and especially losing expensive luxury linens that gain 5-star reviews and very happy guests.

My best advice would be to begin networking as much as possible and find a mentor.You've already taken the first step which is gaining knowledge.

Hello, I'm from Toronto and just started my journey to passive RE investment in the US.
