You have a tough position to fill and requires a person who flourishes working independently.  

While evaluating real estate investment as a strategy that will get me closer to my FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) goals, I can’t help looking a little beyond the near future and what my REI journey would/should look like when I quit my W2 job.Let’s say my goal is to build a 10-15 door portfolio in 5 years that generates at least $3000 monthly cashflow (15 SFH with $200/month cashflow).What I need help understanding is how to maintain this portfolio and target cashflow once I get there.

I finally decided to make my first post on BP and introduce myself on this beautiful Independence Day afternoon.

You may need to put more cash in depending on what repairs the seller is looking to take on!

. $315,000 in 2006 dollars is $407,000 in today’s dollars using the government’s Bureau of Labor Statistics CPI calculator.

Over the long haul - the world will begin to catch on the long con which is the Federal Reserves "QE Infinity" policy - which fundamentally de-values the dollar against fixed supply stores of value such as gold, and is basically an impossible situation for the Fed to get out of (especially since the Fed has proven they are no longer an "independent" institution). 

Good hard working independent tenants abound in this State.  

Then there are independently owned agents who are authorized to issue policies for one or more underwriters.Escrow is a separate function that is frequently handled by the same title company, again as a matter of convenience though it can be handled by a separate escrow company.

You have to understand how each is performing independently and then value accordingly.

Your profile indicates you're building a 26 million dollar home, but new to real estate and want to become financially independent.
