I am considering two options for purchasing a A+++ SFR cash, Option 1 to place in a self directed IRA and let the IRA own the property and Option 2 is to buy in cash upfront and pay the taxes owed.I am 62 years old and have another five to seven years prior to retirement and so I am trying to set up my portfolio for income generation by that time.

I probably should've made this post prior to purchasing but as they say, the next best time to plant a tree is today.

I'm a smaller self-managing investor (just closing on door 17 this week) and have been using Cozy.co ever since I purchased door #1.

Hi All, I am looking at purchasing my first STR in Skagit County WA, just north of Seattle.

My goal is to at least have positive cash flow while I build equity in the investment property.Has anyone successfully purchased a buy & hold with this strategy?

If you no longer feel the place is up to your standards, then cancel the lease (pay the penalty) and find another place.

Baltimore was undertaking a renewal and I purchased a bldg. near downtown on the west side.

Purchase price: $402,800 Cash invested: $148,673 Sale price: $590,000 Our 1st rehab flip!

Purchase price: $65,000 This property was a classic grandma home that needed some TLC to bring it up to modern standards.

We purchased our first duplex last year and we are currently house-hacking it.
