@Daniel Pickford- You are on a path to get lot of wisdom with boat load of money.Good LuckVivek

I too find myself in that same boat.

We made a boat load of money on those wholesale deals so that was nice.

. -- but the government has not issues with them, because no one has reported them.I am perfectly willing to abate lead where it is a legitimate concern, but some of the stuff the report brings up is kind of outrageous, and doing everything the way the government wants will cost $22k (I got an estimate from a professional certified to do lead abatement).I know no one can tell what the exact rules are in my local area, but I'm curious if anyone has ever been in a similar boat -- had a tenant get a government agency to inspect a house for lead, or dealt generally with HUD's lead abatement requirements (which are what my local government's rules are based on).

I've watched a boat load of YouTube videos from all these "gurus" and a lot of little guys that have made it big.

We have a 5 and 2 year old kids so in the same boat as you, they didn't enjoy the outdoors as much as you would think. 

I think a lot of people miss the boat and are passing up on fantastic opportunities.More for us I guess ;)

If you are Seattle, Las Vegas, or San Diego (top 3), you pretty much missed the boat unless you are buying from wholesaler or off market listing.If I can buy one more 4plex that meets above criteria, then fine.

I know people who have done cash out refinances on their personal homes to pay off car loans, buy boats, etc.

., I've been in that boat many times.
