In retrospect, yes.

I'm in agreeance with Beau on this; the fact is, as a rental property owner you are in a service industry, and considering tax implications of receiving those large sum payments up front, it could in retrospect cost you more (time + money).

At this time I was not even really thinking about investing but I followed her advice and in retrospect, am glad I did.

Parts - $5,650 (should have gone with Supply House in  retrospect)Labor - $3,000 (I would totally pay this again in my market).Learned how to install a boiler - maybe not worth much, but I have a mechanical mind and like to know how stuff works in case anything goes wrong.

I purchased a commercial property about 2 years ago and in retrospect did very little in terms of calculations/math/research.

In retrospect there were flags during that call.  

I didn't know that lending costs would be higher to an LLC, but in retrospect that makes perfect sense given my reduced exposure.

Dani,In retrospect, we had a very similar situation to yours a few years ago: we had a brand new HELOC with a $180,000 limit.

I will be honest that in retrospect I wish I kept more detailed records of work we did- I/we would generally travel for 3-7 day stretches doing anywhere from 6-12 hours of work daily but mostly only logged what activities I worked on w/ each trip and not the hours specifically.

In retrospect, it wouldn't have been bad to have looked a little bit longer
