If you need financial help, ask under the "Finance, Tax, and Legal" forum.

If anyone needs to partner on a deal for whatever reason (logistical, financial, etc) shoot me a message.

Financially, but also mentally. 

Because I did everything wrong, started with basically nothing and STILL achieved financial freedom, I know for a fact that anyone can do what I did. 

My wife and I are working toward financial freedom, and I’m grateful to share that we’ve reached some significant milestones.

@Joseph M. prices have certainly gone up with the rest of the country through this great recovery since the financial crisis.

Here is my simple Top 5:1.Review the market – Understand the trends and conditions in the area.2.Analyze the property and the numbers – Ensure the deal makes financial sense.3.Visit the property – There’s no substitute for seeing it firsthand.4.Meet the team – Whether it’s your property manager, builder, or contractor, relationships matter.5.Complete inspections and appraisals – These protect you from costly surprises.If all these boxes are checked and the numbers work for your goals, then it’s likely a solid deal.

Private funding from a relative may provide flexible terms and reduced financial risk, but formal agreements are necessary, and interest paid is deductible for you but taxable for them.Traditional investment property loans offer stability and tax benefits like deductible interest and property taxes but require larger down payments.

I think it would be financial suicide to give up a 500k a year job that you know how to do and is secure to launch into thinking your going to replace it with rental income.. unless your sitting on 5 mil plus in  cash with no debt.

Something to dive deeper with a financial/loan professional.
