So the real question you should be asking yourself is what do you want out of life?

Increasing your touches with every person in your business life cycle is never a bad idea.

But if it does, then, you may be able to deduct your entire rehab costs for the house this year.That is separate from the accelerated depreciation so both things would boost your tax savings.i.e.

Glue fittings is usually where PVC breaks (I was a plumber in another life).

I got a 15k lesson in that one this last year and two other BP members got even more expensive lessons with this one frequent BP poster  :)  I can laugh because 15k is not going to change my life.. but other investors this could be serious Its why I am in the 1% of  BP frequent posters ( and it could be far less than 1%) that think that paid training is one of the best ways to actually get going in this business as opposed to thinking you can listen to a few pod cast read a few blogs read BP until your eyes bug out and your all of a sudden going to be a successful RE investor...

I have talked to multiple lenders who will do a commercial loan with a 15-20 year life, no balloon.

It is a neat way to boost your retirement account.

Hi I'm a young ambitious man whose really looking forward to changing my life with REI, I am very coachable and take instructions very well I want to learn all there is to know and would love all the help I can get.

Congrats on having the foresight to begin your investing at this season of your life!  

But the hours stink - - split shifts, conflicts with your life and family.
