If your options are to keep the stock or sell and but this, I choose keep the stocks hands down.Now, if you can sell the stocks and find some rental income property with real cash flow (forget about vacation or personal usage), you could use said cash flow to pay for your vacations each year!

If you choose to rent to people that don't speak English, you should make them use a professional translator.

New investor question: When choosing whether to buy & hold or to fix & flip, would a good strategy be to?

It will state whether or not your bid was placed as an owner-occupant or investor in line 8 of the contract.Additionally, upon approval of the contract package, your agent will receive an email with the entire package signed by HUD's authorized representative.I have placed bids for purchasers in the past as investors who intend to live in a property because they may choose to sell the property and still be able to utilize their ability to purchase a HUD home as an owner-occupant.

Do buyers have a lot to choose from?
