I also house hacked here in Chicago, Bucktown neighborhood to be precise. 

While no one else seems to have said it this directly, I would suggest that you also explore a Solo 401k as the vehicle that you move your funds into when you retire.

Rather, these vehicles are a mechanism for taking more control over the tax-sheltered retirement plan and diversifying beyond the stock market into asset classes such as real estate that you may understand better and be able to use to produce better results for growing the retirement plan. 

No vehicles parked or stored on the lawn.

I imagine you'll see the tremendous appeal of real estate as an investment vehicle for any home, be that your primary residence or another property purchased solely as an investment, if you spend much time here.The best play for you would be to find a ninja-esque real estate agent in your area and buy them lunch and learn from them. 

I usually charge anywhere from 30 to 50 KW  that takes 3 to 5 hours.. you have a timer in the car that says start charging at 10pm.. its done by 1 to 3 am.. total cost One to TWO dollars for full charge.. and then again with Free supercharging for life.. you can knock off about 20% of car ownership right off the bat.now of course modern new ICE cars don't take a lot of maint either but for a vehicle as heavy as the X and as fast as I drive it on the interstate IE 80 MPH limit through Idaho and Utah.. you would be lucky to get 10 mpg on same size and weight suv.

But this can be great investment vehicle if you are willing to educate yourself. 

Real estate is a perfect vehicle to put together blocks for financial independence.

It’s a solid situation.But like you said, securing long-term financing is critical - and that’s precisely what my concern is.
