Ultimately I hope to utilize real estate as a source of retirement income, and I hope that being a BP member will help me to find the best way to get there.

I am currently working as a Legal Assistant for an Employment and Labor Law Firm and Luis is retired.

Hi all,I'm basically your typical family man who's trying to ensure that his retirement later on is something he can feel confident about and enjoy.

One of my friends who was one of the top agents in the country drove a MBZ 2 seater, the advantage is the clients would have to drive her if they wanted to just take one car.I retired from RE brokerage 18 years ago, and today I drive a MBZ 2 seater.

welcome to BP i currantly live in southern oregon its a great place. there are tons of venues like what you describe as it is a retirement area on the wild and scenic rogue river.

@Stan Hopp, generally the rental income from investment properties is considered to be passive (you need active, earned self-employed income) - therefore it will not quality for contributions into a retirement plan.

My plans are dead on with yours as I am contemplating retiring this year at 36 from the sheriff department and concentrate full time on real estate.

-I want to "retire" asap, as in I want to live rather than work.

I am a retired cop, so the conversation is pretty easy.I offer to pay them when I close on a house that they send me, and I ask them to look for two things for me.

@Steve Olafson The value of the property not my primary consideration at this time, as I consider it my retirement.
