One time we bought a bulk amount of local fudge and taffy that lasted a while. 

We keep telling ourselves "this is the last one" then decide to do it again.

Last year I re-read Rich Dad Poor Dad, and I've immersed myself in learning more about real estate investing ever since. 

The total appreciation of $172,500, assuming an average annual return of 4.3% over 30 years, would be approximately $609,984. curious why the last calculation is using a rate of 4.3%? 

We have an upcoming meeting with them to see how we can extend the loan a few more years to make the total monthly payment including installments for the annual property tax bill, which we’ve had to pay for them this year since they were late the last couple years and had to pay interest to the county. 

Hurricane Helene was the biggest flooding event in Tampa bay in over 100yrs just last fall.  

A little frustrated and thinking about being done, we kept the door on the hinges as we finished our last few planes on the bottom corner. 

For the son to qualify for the $250k exclusion, I believe he would most likely need to meet the ownership and use test, meaning he needs to own and live in the home as his primary residence for at least two of the last five years before the sale.

I need to be at least a couple minutes by car away We have a few in Downtown we stole after the last downturn. 

We do have a few other investments besides RE, but they are baby investments.I'm very comfortable with my RE investments which have proven themselves over the last 30 years.
