Is there a way to buy the SFIC cores and change the pins in house with reasonable time or financial commitment? 

My goal is to own quite a few flourishing properties in order to have financial freedom and eventually move towards part-time teaching and more full-time investing and looking after my properties!

I plan to add value and learn more about real estate and to provide insight on the tax laws surrounding real estate as well as financial planning. 

3) How does REI fit into your overall financial strategy?

I ain't sharing the financials on here because I've seen how, on occasion, some investors start high-roadin' newbie with their epic tales of deals-to-end-all-deals and miss the point.

It's what he does.The advantage I saw with my 3 commercial loans (on commercial property)  was I couldn't stand reporting my financials to them every year to such a high degree that I paid them off or refinanced them with fixed rate private money from a hands-off acquaintance. 

The question is, how will your property be financially situated, absent STR income, if you switch to LTR, can it cover the debt?

I'm not a pro member yet because of financial reasons, but I'm so excited I can hardly keep anything in!

However, the act of doing research on your market, seeking out investors, getting your **** together financially and following home/rental prices are all part of the process of being 'committed'.

Out of the the 3 loans below, which would make the most financial sense to pay more towards principal?
