I knew for years that real estate was the path towards financial freedom, but I was never in a spot financially to pull the trigger.

However, because of the impact the books had on me, I decided to focus my energy and attention on Real Estate investment, in residential rental properties as my ticket to financial freedom and investment.

My name is Robert I'm 26 yrs old and I'm looking to get some financial freedom.

It sounds like you have been enjoying your newfound freedom.

If you can I’m sure you’llBe happier with the Heloc it gives you the freedom and to me saves money

With renting, you have little responsibility and no work to maintain the property, so maybe that gives you the freedom to invest in more rentals rather than the possible stress and time constraints of living with roommates and having to manage a property.Another benefit to house hacking is the much lower interest rate you might get financing a primary residence.

I knew unless it was something I was truly passionate about that could give me the freedom in life I craved I would never truly be happy and of course my family did not understand this because they have the old school mindset all they’ve ever known is roll up your sleeves work hard and hopefully you make enough where you don’t live paycheck to paycheck and hopefully you put something away so you don’t have to work until you die(or until work kills you) .

Hi BP Family,I'm starting my journey towards financial freedom, and I was curious what you would do if you were able to pull $350K out with a refinance at 3.5%?

With that being said I've decided to use real estate as a vehicle towards early retirement and financial freedom. 

but they have really been a HUGE step towards financial freedom.
