My Grandfather passed and left property to his 5 children, my uncles and aunt.

I have 4 children with 2 more on the way(twins).

My name is Amanda Lawson and together, my husband, my children and I formed Empower WIRE.

The day I got the keys, I put on war paint and ran through the house yelling my battle cry and throwing bug bombs and boric acid throughout the place as if it was bug Fallujah and then got the heck outta there; the next day I pulled out all the carpets, linoleum, and threw out every piece of furniture and trash left in the house and also had a professional pest control guy come in.After that, it was a day of cleaning, a few days for new flooring, about a week to fix the two bathrooms, and another two days for paint, and voila!

Using the 50% rule is like trying to find a family with 2.35 children.

Maybe her pastor, one of her children, sister, brother. 

If you don't want to own furniture permanantly this is what you do you rent it. 

A little about myself...I'm 32 years old with 2 young children.  

I don't want to discriminate against people with children.

So I used more leverage (debt) in my portfolio.Now that these early risks have paid off and my portfolio has grown larger, not to mention I am now married with children, I have more to lose.
