Classes are great and serve a need, but networking and proven track record trump a classroom.Ask yourself would you invest considerable amount of money which may represent a person's retirement or life savings with someone who has no track reord, never done a deal?

Definitely, if your properties appreciate enough to essentially let you retire, then that's another method.

I plan to continue my work in commercial real estate, but because I am 100% commission based I need to develop a diversified retirement plan.

Then they will move the disabled person to a retirement home. 

My C Corp collect the rents, pays for all the repairs, bill, taxes, takes a management fee and pays the rest to the LLC.My C corp is used to write off most of the expenses and also to give me fringe benefits like health care and to contribute to retirement plans.

There is approx. 140k in equity at this time.My original intent with this property was to leave it zero cash flow but own it out right for a few years, then upon retirement (military officer), sell it for the down payment on a retirement home in Tahoe. 

I am retiring from the military and currently have my home on the market north of Seattle for $775k.  

One of my "retired" projects is to properly wire my houses for cable and get all the crazy wires everywhere eliminated.

When it’s all said and done I’m just a W2 worker that is trying to get 5-6 properties to supplement my 401k in retirement.

I absolutely want to retire from the "rent a room" thing ASAP.
