I finished school when I was 16 and now, I'm 17 years old and I'm making 36,000 a year from my w2 job, I know there's not much I could do as of right now but what should I do to set me up so when I turn 18 I can start my investing Journey.

A question I have been pondering within myself for some time and figured here would be a good place to get an answer.I currently own a home that has close to 100k in equity in it, we plan to move in 3-5 years to our long term house and would be sizing up a fair amount.So my question is should I use the equity to fund investments/projects, or should I save it and roll it all into my next house so I can have it paid off sooner/lower my monthly.

I also own a small renovation company that has operated in my are for nearly a decade. so my rehab cost on a property would be much more cost effective than hiring outside contractors.

I would suggest taking a look at Columbus Ohio because it has everything mentioned above and there's so many companies moving/developing here.

If so, how do you break above that?

Then the other question is what are you doing so egregious that insurance or your property manager would not cover you?

So maybe you pay $2000 for the HOA deed and then pay HOA monthly and you get to live rent free saving $1000-$1500/month rent for 6-12 months or however long it takes for foreclosure from the lender. 

We did the cost seg year one so all the tricky accounting is out of the way.

We weren’t particularly picky about our exteriors but some materials were outright prohibited including vinyl or aluminum siding, vinyl windows (which would have saved us so much more money), and more.

Rents are low, so buy and hold is probably not the best strategy.
