I have an old retired guy that has been in the building I bought just over a year ago for upwards of 30 years.

For a long time, I envisioned my end game to own 10 Single Family Homes in "A" neighborhoods and eventually own them free and clear and retire off of the passive income.

A big thanks to all the knowledgeable people who contribute.A little about me: Recently took an early retirement from a corporate IT career.  

I plan to "retire" 20+ years earlier than normal and not sure I'd know how to do it without real estate.

My wife and I have achieved the goals that we wanted to accomplish in our first years of being together and we are faced with the reality that if we don't go take over my families' business, my parents will either sell the business which wouldn't leave them enough to retire on, or keep running the business and allow it to put them in an early grave.

A way to save more tax is through a self directed retirement plan. 

While it was a deeply rewarding career, I had to face the fact that I’m not 20-something anymore and I don’t want to be crippled with arthritis to the point of not being able to enjoy retirement down the road.Someone on a different networking site told me about Public Adjusting.
