I bought a house with my ex, and after a few years, we split up (on good terms).

Not only will you make good friends, you’ll make connections in the industry.  

Good luck with everything Jim!

Good luck with your investing! 

A question I have been pondering within myself for some time and figured here would be a good place to get an answer.I currently own a home that has close to 100k in equity in it, we plan to move in 3-5 years to our long term house and would be sizing up a fair amount.So my question is should I use the equity to fund investments/projects, or should I save it and roll it all into my next house so I can have it paid off sooner/lower my monthly.

Any agent who has worked with investors or owned their own rentals would have a good idea of the costs of maintenance and repair.

A SFH in a good location beats a duplex in a rough or questionable neighborhood.

We'd really like to move back to downtown and our house is about 15 minutes away in a good neighborhood.

Nice to look at, easy to use, good amount of deals advertised in the states that they operated in.

Want to make the offer attractive enough for them that they'll consider but also low enough so that we get a good deal.
