Don't throw all the eggs into one basket!

Hmmm, pay rent or eat?

Put a good down payment on a house you want to live in long term and use the savings that your getting from not renting to build a nest egg to invest in the future.

Currently, I have all of my eggs in one basket (in Memphis).

According to a recent report from IHL Group, the traditional retailers across grocery, drug stores and supercenters that were growing their businesses by 10% or more prior to COVID-19, were many times more likely to have invested in offering the following customers journeys to make their physical locations complimentary to e-commerce:Click & Collect: 13xBuy Online, Return in Store: 1.6xShip to Store for Pickup: 1.3xShip from Store: 1.6xSimilarly, the Wall Street Journal reported that restaurants are seeing a surge in online ordering via platforms like DoorDash, Uber Eats, Grubhub and Postmates.

We have joked that an agent could eat free lunch every day of the rest of their life if they're willing to spend that kind of time meeting with others in the industry.Con: Do you work regular hours? 

Have your friend start eating the disgusting tenants food or just start throwing some of it away saying that it looked like it was going bad.5.

I've read several books, listened to podcasts, eat, breath and speak real estate to anyone who will listen lol.

I'd save the money that I would have spent on housing to accelerate my nest egg for the next building.If househacking isn't an option, then I'd do live-in flips to buildup cash and invest that into rentals (BRRR or buy and hold). 

If not, you may have to eat the cost.
