Maybe a car murder a few years back on the block but in that area of Baltimore its part of life.I know this is all bad news. 

My wife is also all in with me on this path, but will be more of a behind the scenes partner in our endeavours.Even more exciting news,I just found out a week ago my wife is pregnant with our first child and there is no greater motivation for financial freedom than wanting to not be tide down to a full time job so I can watch my child grow.I am excited and motivated to begin this next phase of my life, both personally and financially, and look forward to forming relationships with some fantastic people.

@Neil Narayan thanks for sharing, more strong news for the Austin housing market.  

Just guessing, but probably from the news somewhere.

If you think good news travels fast, bad news travels even faster.Always make it about the other person.

Will today’s fed news have a negative impact on residential real estate?

The study compared the 150 largest US metros on things like the share of adults aged 25+ with a bachelor’s degree or higher to the quality of the public schools to the gender education gap and Austin leads all of Texas in educationhttps://cbsaustin.com/news/local/austin-is-one-of-the-top-10-most-educated-cities-in-the-us-study-finds

The adoption of the Residential Infill Project must now be acknowledged by the State and implementation is expected in 2021.https://www.portland.gov/bps/rip/news/2020/8/12/portland-city-council-adopts-residential-infill-projectObviously this is a big deal.

But I have some updates and also lessons learned that I hope the mid-level REI MF investor can learn from.Updated Good news: I bought a class C Tucson, AZ 19 unit apartment building (10/2018) for $750K, put 20% down on 5 year seller carry (30 year amortization for 6%), and sold it for a whopping 1.2 million.

The good news is that you can get those things back, with or without her.
