I think a lot of people will disagree with my approach on the last part b/c I keep a high amount of money tied up in equity, but It works for my long-term vs. short-term objectives. 

If you consistently buy properties with built in equity you could play the equity against each property to fully pay off your properties.

A few years ago I figured out that if I were to do this, I would have about $2,500,000.00 in Equity or Net Worth.  

I gained $150000 in equity in five years with $30000 worth of rehab work. 

In my research I found the following roles: FINRA regulates trading in equities, corporate bonds, securities futures, and options.

Divide that by 12 for the monthly and you get $2,778 per month in Equity Growth.

You have a much better chance of walking away from the signing table with 50k in equity if you put in the work to find an off market deal.

You will have a $20k-$25k investment with a yield around 8%... which is considerably less than what you are wanting.Each year, your properties will appreciate around $2,500-$3,500 in equity and cash flow about $1,800 each.

We have about $250,000 in equity in our primary home and a little more than $100,000 in savings.

Painting somebody else's house for $20/hr or painting your own house for $100+/hr in equity bump?
