You only get one shot in life to have a lifelong marriage to the wife of your youth.

So I am clearly getting started a little later in life.  

I want to have more time with my family and give my kids the life I never had.

I'm entering this with the idea to become financially independent and have a healthy work life balance one day. 

If she complains to the local authorities about it being uninhabitable, ask the inspector to order her immediate removal for health reasons and you wouldn't owe her anything other than pro-rated rent - which she hasn't paid. 

Once the property is under contract I have it inspected to determine the current condition and life expectancy of all major components and appliances.  

They'll run you $4k plus a piece and shorten your life 1 year each time in stress and aggravation.To keep a high equity target off my back like you mention, I use my generic-sounding mgt co s-corp to put mortgages on my free and clear houses. 

I did my first deal as a "life Hack" at the beginning of last year. 

Dennis joined KREIA and it changed his life.

My job doesn't have the best work/life balance and it's something we're hoping to change using the power of real estate.My wonderful partner and I want to focus primarily on multi-family dwelling rentals using a buy and hold strategy.
