My name is Josh Ricord and I am a recent Biomechanics and MBA graduate and retired student athlete as of 2023.  

Fannie Mae research shows that low-income and first-time homebuyers pay disproportionally more in closing costs.

Though growth markets are attractive for the appreciation, I would balance it with some cash-flowing properties (in income markets), or properties in hybrid markets (where you can some cash-flow and some appreciation).

Some people want passive income and max performance. 

I came across in rent to retirement podcast that there is a 5% downpayment option for investment properties from a credit union.

Let's consider the Seattle Metropolitan area; an SFH (Single Family Home) would cost around $1M, and the taxable income is $500k.My questions are as follows:1.

Some just make perpetual threatening phone calls.Some start court actions, so they get a money judgment which they can use to at least garnish state income taxes (you can't garnish federal returns).Property owners need to start asking PMCs HOW they will execute their services, so owner expectations can be better met:)

Now semi-retired but farther away. 

The income historically improves quickly so the cash flow improves quickly.

I sell insurance and am commission based so I would like some sort of passive income.
