@Troy Zapp, if the wife is on board, start exploring the investment strategy of house hacking to minimize monthly expenses and watch your income snowball.

For example, lets assume the house is worth $100k now.

FX, Crypto, Flipping Houses, Sub2, Gold and Silver, Rare Earth Metals, Day Trading, Bernie Madoff, Vending Machines, Car Washes, Amway, any MLM.....whatever the dream of the day is.In all of them, you can make money, you can get rich, but almost always it takes a lot of hard work, blood, sweat, tears, missed holidays, working on weekends, money, risk, stress.

I would say MOST children are never exposed to financial literacy in the house or in school.

Now, he was asking for $100,000.00 at a 20% flat rate for three months.

Also, in our experience, 95+% of agents have no clue how to calculate ROI, Cash-on-Cash, Cap Rate, etc., so what are they really going to help an investor with?

I'm in Phoenix, where it's brutally hot in summer and a lot of houses have pools. 

I also house hack and rent a room as a MTR and I've gone with high quality items to ensure durability.

Or you can apply a discount rate to your total capex in accordance to when you forecast the expenses.
