There are many things you cannot put in a garbage disposer, anyway, and most tenants, including myself, put garbage in plastic bags and throw it in the trash.The less you own the less you have to maintain.

@Greg Scott@Josh Caldwell We have $35,000 HELOC on our first property which we are keeping open to maintain future updates to the property and future investments.

Without a cost segregation study, you would depreciate the $12M over a 39 year period, $307,692 per year.Within this office building, you have assets such as paved parking, specialty electrical, finishes, carpeting, landscaping, sidewalks, office furniture, electrical systems, plumbing systems, etc.

Keep reinvesting it all until you reach the goal you want and then hire an asset manager to handle everything for maintaining all of those and then at that point buy the things you want for yourself and your family.A non-real estate investor would probably say go buy a mansion and a bugatti.

If your invested in multi-family real estate a cost segregation study can be a great tax savings tool.
