Your goal is to have a min of 7 different stream of income by the time you retire.Best of luck

Thank @Mike Wadsley I was more thinking about leasing part of my own commercial lots for the purpose of an additional income stream.

Austin's housing trends have shifted every few months, over the past year, with the constant influx of new residents and pressure on inventory.

I'm constantly networking my way to more buyers...

We like the idea of various income streams.

If you would like to inform folks of the reality of realty you'll have a heck of a job ahead of you, there is a constant stream of newbies asking questions and self appointed experts that are far from it giving bad advice.An example, it was just mentioned that properties are put under contract at par (which would be market price, asking price) then a profit is added and the contract sold.

We've been able to infuse money into our local economy and provide work for others.Being good at this business naturally leads to a good return on investment and will provide an income stream as part of our retirement plan.

It may be available to stream at a later date.http://www.klru.org/schedule/episode/255897/

This could factor in the Capitalization equation or a Discount to Present Value (discounting a future income stream to a present monetary value).The reality of the situation for a SFR and typically educated buyers, there may be an impact to value, but it should not amount to thousands of dollars.

The broker/agent will want every time to try to get the juicy steak first.The point is that the brokers/agents return and give constant deals to the clients that treat them right and not the ones trying to feed them crumbs while they eat the steak.
