He was successful because he was on a learning journey and we all enjoyed taking the ride with him.

Most people that I talk to about it give me strange looks when I tell them that we own rental properties but basically live in a tiny house (400sq ft RV) ourselves.Eventually, we'll go back to having our own brick and mortar house, but this season is actually pretty fun for us and we've really been enjoying it.

Enhancing the exterior with fresh paint, landscaping, new siding, or an upgraded front door can create a strong first impression.

We sold one property this year where we wrapped the 4% mortgage note into a 10% note and as a result are enjoying a 17% annual ROI for a minimum of 2 years and possibly as long as 10 years if the borrower/buyer does not pay us off early.After 40+ years of real estate investing, in many different markets across the country during many different economic climates, both in residential and (primarily) in commercial, I can tell you that hard and fast “rules” should be constantly evaluated to see if they are limiting the opportunity to “jump start” your wealth building.   

In between we have the life’s, careers, wealth, satisfaction of real people, and their contribution to the enhancement of society.
