So, in theory, with BRRRR, you can start with a limited amount of capital and buy hundreds of houses (again, in theory).

Liquidity and tenant class (risk) are much more important than a few hundred more in cash flow. 

@Rich Annunziata - it is only if you are owner occupied and a couple hundred bucks a year - not worth the fraud

The tax impact is generally negligible - on the order of a few hundred dollars per year on a $100K limited partner investment.The marketing folks at IRA custodians are not tax advisors.

I noticed when I was listening to the program I never heard of a guy saying, “hey I’m fifty years old I make about fifty grand a year I live paycheck to paycheck and this is what I did to get started with a positive outcome”Its mostly people who are already making eighty, ninety, hundred thousand dollar job with investments and retirement packages which I was never privy to because of my career choices not complaining I’m just saying that was my choice I live with my choice.

The Carls’ are absolutely right, you can easily so it yourself; there are hundreds/thousands that do!

Meaning, house-hacking your first triplex may appear to be very risky to your parents because they have not spent hundreds of hours scouring forums, books, and the MLS.

They are hundreds of dollars less than a private practice lawyer.

We are now going to try to just have my wife take out a home equity loan to get started in investment properties we have around a hundred twenty thousand in home equity our first question is taking out home equity a good way to get started in investment properties but also if we do take out home equity for a downpayment will we still have issues trying to finance the rest of it with only my wife working part time any opinions would be greatly appreciated thanks

I may bump them up $50 because taxes have gone up a few hundred on that property.
