Goal of 6 properties in total (including personal home)2016The plan: Ramp up my purchasing schedule - having built more resources, developed a level of comfort and understanding of the processes of deal finding, purchasing strategies, and other aspects of buy and hold investing.

My personal opinion is that having savings in hard assets such as Gold, Silver, and BTC may be a good idea but I have not heard of any companies that would do that transaction. 

I'm a credit union person overall- it can be a little less friendly for multiple accounts, sharing funds ect. 

Given the complex nature of investments and personal finance, I want to make sure I'm making informed decisions right from the start.From what I understand, a fiduciary financial advisor is someone legally obligated to put my interests ahead of their own, which sounds reassuring.

More than 50% test.You must have spent more than 50% of your working time during the tax year performing personal services for a real property trade or business.

The possibilities for additional MF properties after a few years of growth seem to be more achievable versus having to have a chunk of personal cash down.

I was still reaching things and the sales person--Angela was extremely pushy.

TBH - property managers are going to vary, and you are going to want to likely interview them in person. 

I have had many, many problems with contractors over the years that were 100 percent their fault, but I have also had a quick trigger on contractors, not realizing that none of them work they way I want them to, but it's whether or not they are working better than the person you would have to get to replace them half through the job.

This approach enabled us to kickstart the project without personal financial input.
