And if you say NEVER, you are my kind of guy.But it sounds like you have a monster of a job and huge shoes to fill when you step out of bed every morning.

What would you do in my shoes?

It ties into similar concepts as the millionaire real estate investor and agent, having a big why.

Any ideas on how I can use my equity that is tied up in my property..Thanks,-Camronn

We want to be able to keep expanding, but in our market all of the multifamilies are being sold at or above market value, and all of our capital would be tied up in one rental property.

We just want to get more information on these incidents and make sure it's a good deal before we tie up this property.

As retirement edges closer we are definitely looking at this as a possible income solution, we just need to manage our finances well so we can do the same thing again, albeit with a conventional or other than VA loan since that's tied up - hopefully with a better class/larger "twin home" type duplex so we can owner occupy for awhile and not be cramped. 10 years with 4 of us in 1000 sq ft has certainly been a lesson in patience!

If all my eggs are already tied into the multi?

Considering modular for an inexpensive way to get started, but unsure of the financing options.First off, I would like to tie in with the local network of investors.
