I am trying to get investors to think outside of the box including (BRRR) and find downpayment assistance on a great property that has the cash flow to support 100% financing.  

I'm also putting away money into 401k (roth) from my job as it's giving away free money matching.Unfortunately the support from work is not giving me adequate tools to plan my future considering my real estate and my goals.My plan is to keep the real estate until i can suck out all the depreciation (or most) then exchange like-kind property to not have to pay that money back.

There needn't be a 'ton' of equity, simply enough to support an appraisal of the asset that allows one to refinance their entire investment out.

Some admit they 'worked off the books' to avoid child support, others just had no clue how to take advantage of the many tax deferral plans or appreciate the advantage of Social security later in life as most have nothing saved. 

Section 8 is support that is attached to the tenant, not the house. 

Stay healthy.

You want to find a location that will support the use/uses of real estate for a very very long time - hundreds of years. 

I am sorry for such a low level stump so to speak, but I am torn on this and my network of support is lacking since I haven’t put the work into building it.

(MSA is metropolitan statistical area - what the census bureau considers the economic unit of the area).The state doesn't matter, because some states have poor growth overall, but MSAs within the state are healthy.  

What are the splits, fees, support, etc.
