I would echo the advice to buy a quality used car in the 5-10k range and invest the rest of the money.As a side note, anytime you see lower than 5% interest on consumer products like cars, jewelry, solar panels, whatever... it is always done by the retailer increasing the price and using that money to buy down the interest rate.

Now that I have done so, I feel a little more comfortable putting myself out there.As a new member and amateur, some things that I have already learned are: This business is not easy, it is time consuming, it is not a get rich quick process and it requires a lot of hard work and motivation.

Ufmip, mip, fees, qualifiers are all part of the atr(ability to repay) laws put in place to protect consumers.

The unsuspected landlords that had no clue.I worked in my earlier years in consumer credit.

When consumers have a lot of extra disposable income they buy luxury items.  

If you have any questions for the 'consumer side' of using a SOLO, or SDIRA, fire away. 

I like Airbnb more as a consumer.  

I have been consuming as much information as possible in the last month or so trying to learn more about real estate investing.

Heat pumps will generally put out MORE heat than it consumes, unlike electric resistance that puts out an equal amount to what it consumes (some fan losses, but mostly).

However that usually applies to consumer goods, not sure how it would work in a real estate transaction.
