Even though I currently reside in Abu Dhabi I am looking to move to Canada with the wife and get ourselves set up with rental properties, ultimately working less to enjoy life more.I look forward to meeting new people and being an active participant on the forums.Cheers,Rob

These forum posts have a short life, but your profile page is your personal billboard that will work for your indefinitely.

If it would, we get our extra set of maintenance guys and start knocking out the work to get them re-rented again.Potential pitfall- Takes longer to sell than the time frame I'm stating.Course of Action- As a measure to protect you, we could enter an agreement that if it takes longer than 6 months to sell all properties and return your funds plus profit, we are charged a penalty of some sort....we pay you an extra 10% on top, or something along those lines.Potential pitfall - Something happens to (xxx) or I and we're stuck with the workload.Course of Action- May want to consider getting life insurance on one another for this specific LLC.

I was a 82nd airborne paratrooper in the military so I learned one important lesson about life "whether you are afraid or not, run for the door and jump with your eyes open".I am not looking for a mentor but I would be very open to a partner.

You're not their parents, life coach, or whatever.

Reading is nice but if you really want to commit, you need to sit down with a mentor and discuss a plan of action that will be suited to your current life style or work schedule.  

It wouldn't be my personal investment choice, but I hate the snow, so I suppose we are all biased to something.Another market I am looking at is Portland, as it has plenty of jobs, a growing economy, a high quality of life, and an increase of 8.5% in property values over the year. 

Welcome @Joe Larson Madison is an interesting place...stop by from time to time...cold as hell in the winter but good quality of life across the board.

My life goal is to develop enough of a cash flow of mailbox money (and internet-based work) to move to Panama with my sweetie and life partner.

My ultimate goal is to make Real Estate my next/last career (no, I'm not close to retirement) and to build steady stream of income that will provide the security and time to do whatever I want.I'm looking forward to connecting with fellow BPers (especially those in the Boston market) and continuing my education which I know will be life long.
