Usually we have a few thousand dollars each year to invest after we max out these accounts (and it usually just goes into a taxable brokerage account where we use it to buy Berkshire Hathaway or Markel or some other stock that does not pay a dividend).That extra money was actually how we ended up buying this duplex - thought it might be a good way to diversify our investments.I was wondering if I could use net income from our duplex (assuming we have net income, and by net income I mean what we report to the IRS) to fund a solo 401k or some other kind of tax-advantaged plan?

I got my materials money back and everything I paid painters, etc..

Multiple books: The Book on Rental Property; The Book on Investment Property Investing; The Book on Investing in Real Estate with No (and Low) Money Down; Start with Strategy; Real Estate by the Numbers; and Finding and Funding Great Deals.

An example of this would be mixing your personal money and LLC money in the same bank account.3.

For the most part, I have been steered towards private or hard money loans rather than traditional lenders.

BTW, we have received some nice checks years later from a few tenants who decided to pay off their judgment to close on their dream house.Does this practice often result in you collecting some money?

She told me just like this hire workers that do great work , have a timeline for the flip she said about 3 months is a good time another thing that I  found interesting if they don't get it done in that timeframe the lender charges them an extra 1500 each month until home is sold to get money back.

I tend to categorize investors into 3 groups: Group 1: Too much deal flow and bandwidth but not enough money - (Lending is the key to this group's success/scalability)Group 2: Too much money and not enough deal flow - (All cash investing is the right decision). 

I know people that have spent money on courses and workshops, but personally I would rather put that money towards an investment.

I'm already migrating away from Quickbooks next year, so I will no longer be an Intuit customer for any of their products.There are several other options -YNAB, Empower/Personal Capital, Quicken Simplifi, Monarch Money, etc.
