I too am not a fan of charging people to see your site where you’re advertising. 

I'm definitely a fan of house hacking, so really like your duplex plan to rent out one side!

I'm a massive fan of partnerships; however, I understand a person's desire to keep their independence in investments. 

Personally, I'm not a fan of touching the funds in your TSP unless you absolutely have to, and I never have.

. :-) I agree, We are not big fan of Worcester despite the inventory because of crime rate, we literally saw gun shot marks on one of the neighborhood houses we visited early Jan 2021, after that we stopped going there.

I am not a fan of vinyl at all and while I might repair it if it was reasonable to do so, I would never install it.

This way, if things hit the fan we have a cushion or have the cushion for buying opportunities under a correction.

I’m not planning on any boot at all (beyond incidentals) but one of the two buildings I’ve got under contract turns out to have rather more significant issues than anticipated.As a result, I’m having to consider whether to proceed and deal with the unanticipated costs or back out and either identify a couple of potential replacements knowing that the identification period will close before I can fully vet them, or take the tax hit.At the moment, not a huge fan of the entire 1031 process.Thanks,Allen

If I am in your place, I will keep the options open and will look at both the south (Tacoma, Seatac,...) and the north (Everett, Marysville,...)I am not a big fan for OOS since we can still find good deals in our market and the appreciation is great. 

I still think it’s a great value.In regard to non paying tenants, it’s very rare, even in the current environment for tenants to be delinquent in the desirable areas of the city like south wedge, park ave, upper Monroe etcSo unless the proverbial crap really hits the fan I don’t see property owners in those areas needing to dump their assets.In regard to networking, check out FFREIA.
