Well you are in luck.

Rent out a room (or rooms) to people you screen very well. 

The need for money got me thinking of alternatives and it’s good to see others have tried tapping into savings for real estate as well.

As well as the potential for assumable loans.

The interior is stuck in the 1980's but the condition of everything is still well-maintained.

I'm in Livonia / Canton area and I haven't attended any Washtenaw County or Ann Arbor REIA events but I do attend the Oakland County REAI meeting in Troy as well as the Michigan REIA meetings in Troy and they are super helpful and if you sign up to get their emails you can check the topics in advance to make sure it's worth the trip for that meeting.They usually have really good speakers. 

@Jessica PerkinsTo make real estate a significant part of your retirement plan, leverage your experience in managing mid-term and short-term rentals, ensure your rental income is well-documented, research local market trends, and explore financing options.

Obviously the majority of the money will stay in the fund and I’ll reinvest into opportunity zone property; however, I would like to take an owners withdrawal as well.

Look into that route as well. 

I've done this with my properties because I'm well known in my small town and don't want people to know what I own.LEGAL PROTECTION: By placing your assets in an LLC, you are legally separating them from your personal assets.
