I don't put much stock in references like landlord or employment.

Most of them are listed companies (they have a stock price), which means they really care about margins and earnings growth.

I'm particularly passionate about Midwest area.Outside of real estate, I enjoy Hiking, fishing, hunting, stock trading, and serving my customers that require plumbing service.Excited to learn and connect with you all!

Alternatively, I could liquidate stocks to pay off the property but I'd be subject to capital gain taxes and obviously not leveraging.

It would be much better if you could truly block someone so they can't see your forum posts and you don't see theirs.I imagine they aren't doing this though because they are very aggressive about wanting content to be out there, seen, and visible.Yes, but that goes against the first principle of any networking site.

For stock investments for instance, just invest directly.

This presumes you make smart purchases that cash flow after paying all their expenses (Principle, interest, Taxes, Insurance, and a maintenance / Capex reserves).The risk of leverage is if your properties AREN'T making money - maybe you misjudged your income, or you run into repairs that cost more than you expected or budgeted for.  

I have looked into AirDNA and AirBnB estimates and I want to know how much stock I can take with their estimates?
