(Real estate returns aren’t guaranteed but they’re also closer to 20 or 30%, so I’m saying a failure is 6%.)The eggs in different baskets is just a bonus benefit, like the appreciation benefit, and we forgot to mention the depreciation benefit (you end up with 4x as much tax free income.)It’s definitely scarier.

If you don't expand you will have played it safe but missed out on a nice bonus windfall 10 years or so into your retirement.These are just my thoughts.

Purchase price: $45,000 Cash invested: $8,000 Bought a duplex $10000 below market value, renovated, raised rents and cash flows well now at $500 a month plus I get an added bonus of a 30x36 building I run my construction business out of in the back.

Bonus question, if your social is working, what educational resource would you recommend to learn more about using social to get deals?

If we do a 3 bedroom plan the rooms would be 11ft by 12ft. plus have some bonus space that could be used for an office or a reading room or something else.  

Also, I will absolutely sign up for PIG, I keep hearing about it!

This could be stuffed with treats and other consumables – bonus points if you source the items from local businesses that they can check out!

There's a bonus room where I could also add a closet and convert to an additional bedroom. 

If your starting to stress on earnings you just need to remember the lag time from finding a lead to closing to get cash (If your paid per deal).See if your investors will pay for your time per hour at a low rate with a bonus structure for deals.

(Regular buyer who is buying market value)What are my options here as I am very eager to get involved with the deal for the experience and getting paid on it is a bonus.
