Welcome to BP @Eric SlaterWish you much success in your Real Estate Investing Career.  

I have started a career in real estate with the goal of creating passive income to be able to enjoy more time with my family and to bless as many people as possible with the fruits of this labor.

As I've read on here, many investment property owners have gone their whole career without a unit/house being inhabitable.

I've rented my primary residence for my entire real estate career with the exception of 3 months back in the day.

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