I bought a house last week and am selling a house next week, but I don't know how many doors I have today, unless I effort a count. 

Though, it has taken a lot of time and experience to get to the level where I'm at today. 

All I can say is no way we would be where we are today had we gone the out of state route. 

Today it's called Power Flipper 3X.

Today, that building generates enough passive income to cover his annual retirement contributions.You mentioned taking the 10% penalty, which I’d only recommend as a last resort.

Today is very different as it is all about the management (and not appreciation) compared to past where management could suck but you still had superior apprecation.This will not crash housing of course but all those "creative" deals where people are paying more than market value are going to realize they have no exit. 

It’s a way to earn solid returns without the day-to-day work.

And probably in ways we can’t fathom today.  

Why do you get up in the morning, what are your goals for today and what have you accomplished last year?

Offset today’s income with depreciation.
