Your future child/children and you will be so much happier and will have such a great start in this world!  

I just turned 34 years old, just had my first child, a daughter (Sloane), and just realized that sitting in my office trying to bill 2000 hours a year was not my idea of a happy life and satisfying career.

Unfortunately, the company I work for has a Title Company connected to it, and is "allergic" to investing-issues/circumstances.

I recognize that mistakes are inevitable and risk is inherent in any investment, so as a beginner I'm trying to be extra cautious and take steps to minimize the impact of potential problems (while making sure to avoid "analysis paralysis").The other factor that I didn't mention is that my wife and I just had our first child in December, so we're still adjusting to everything that comes with along with having a new baby in our life, especially the impacts on sleep and free time. 

After saying I would never ever get married again,  I married a much younger beautiful woman who never wanted kids(I have a grown child), loves fitness, cherishes me and is a nurse to take care of me in my old ageReal Estate has been my only job other than the US Army. 

However, what actually happened is that she allowed her slut daughter to move in (with illegitimate child of course) and then shortly thereafter the "perfect tenant" moved out (without ever telling me).

I have another child on the way and am needing to live in this purchase.

Is she running a day care,  watching kids from time to time, is she licensed or did she take on family or a neighborhood child?    

I am looking to develop a buy and hold strategy to help fund retirement.My wife and I had our first child a little over 9 months ago, which has motivated me beyond belief to build a business that I can fund our retirement, while also helping provide a head start for my daughter and any future children my wife and I have.I look forward to "meeting" you!

When things go wrong on that single property (and they can) you don't have a portfolio of other properties to balance it out, so make sure you have enough reserves to weather the storm when you have a vacancy or unexpected repairs until you can build up a large enough portfolio that you don't feel the pain when you have one problem child in your portfolio.
