@Fay ChenThought about this but the risk of the 7k per month mortgage after we’d refinance is too much for us to bear at this point (I.e vacancies and unexpected events/repairs).

"Hypothecation occurs when an asset is pledged as collateral to secure a loan, without giving up title, possession or ownership rights, such as income generated by the asset.

If you don't want the fence there, have them remove it and repair any damage to the landscaping that occurred. 

There is not a problem with deposits being refunded in our state and if it occurs the former tenant has a clear path for recovery of triple damages through small claims court and subsequent lien as it would be non exempt property  

The solution is to find a different area (market) to invest in.Second, what you are describing as a plan, is not a plan...that's a series of events. 

Because I don't have time to attend multiple networking events every week. 

I've got a growing following on all platforms I can get on, and I'm getting out to public meetups, events, etc. as often as I can.

That means attending local business and networking events regularly and talking about what you do and getting to know the other regular attendees.

There's plenty to learn through books, the BP forums, podcasts, webinars, and networking events. 

You may wish to confirm that the new 401k provider will handle the ongoing compliance support such as any required 5500 filing (e.g. 5500-ez for a one-participant plan with assets in excess of $250,000), any required tax reporting (e.g. 1099-r in the event of a distribution or in-plan Roth conversion), mandatory plan updates and amendments, etc.4.
