None of those shenanigans here.I actually live in Brickell myself and can't speak highly of it.

Quote from @Kirk Roberts: @Bruce LynnI'm in NH Carroll County.Check out https://nhtaxdeedauctions.com/upcoming_auctions/https://www.carrollcountysheriff.org/information/real-estate...Looks like you can actually see sales prices, so that's a bonus in your area.

I actually don't like the idea of paying off a property either though, I think one of the biggest reasons for investing in real estate instead of the stock market is that real estate is setup to use debt as leverage.

CAP rate (how many real actual dollars you put in your pocket every year) and wholesale (value of the property and wholesale value of the trailers). 

I actually made a video about this on youtube.

We actually coached a client to offer a dog photo shoot at his hotel because so few in his area allow dogs.

Also as a heads up, in the meantime before you get it replaced, if you're working on any outlets or anything in your home where you want to shut power down, just be aware that tripping the breakers may not actually de-energize the circuits!    

Many of our properties are now in "infinite return" on our investment because we refinanced to pull our original investment out so we are making cash flow and appreciation but actually have $0 invested in the houses.I did the 1-2 houses per year for quite a few years, sold some to reallocate investments at times and found that was about the maximum pace I could handle while working my W2.

It's great to read about all the stories of rookie investors becoming big time investors and how they actually did it.

Then again, if the market is down 20% you actually benefit from sheltering the 50k from the downturn, earning 5%, and using it to invest in RE.Hope this helps
