Are you tired of the 9-5 grind and not achieving your full financial potential?

I like the suggestion of looking for an independent stucco contractor but absolutely only use licensed contractors in good standing.

Long term goals to make enough for financial freedom.

I know taxes can be very complicated, but could someone please give me the heads up on why it's financially better to invest over the border in North Carolina, than here in South Carolina?

Renting out rooms is a great way to help pay the bills in a tough financial situation but I would just make sure you screen the roomates you choose.

There is a great ROI on rentals but I will not jump in without proper financial backing.

If they are only seeking a check every month and the largest amount possible based on the equity of this other property then sure it's a fine decision.A couple other thoughts though:With a smaller multi-family a vacancy is felt more financially than with a larger one, but the extent of that is influenced by the market's local metro and property location; andWhy not use some of the equity from the property to fund the purchase of the smaller one and then have two properties generate (probably) the same amount of income or more with debt service on both.  

The problem is we thought we had a credible buyer for this property (BKA 5D Financials).
