@Lance CarlsonHello Lance,All signs are pointing to a healthy and prosperous future for Detroit.

Looking forward to healthy business partnerships and expanding our portfolio together.

Got 3 young kids as well so be sure to balance house hack / investing lifestyle with your spouse and kid expectations.

These factors can often indicate a healthy real estate market with potential for long-term growth and appreciation.In addition to these broader factors, I would also consider local regulations, tax policies, and other factors that could impact your investment.

If someone has a good income but are not saving it is because they live a wasteful rather than a frugal lifestyle.

Only after I reach the level where I need to reach to finance a FI or FF lifestyle then I would begin tackling the primary residence debt.  

Just don't do it.Arizona has a healthy rental market.

If you are going to invest, make sure your sponsor has access to a very healthy deal flow so that the deals that make it through the funnel are of good quality.     

Most of us want to grow as fast as possible but I like to have a healthy cash reserve to cover issues because it is not a matter of if but when issues will occur.  

SFR are great here, coupled with the vacation/AirBnB lifestyle you have the ability to be flexible in your planning.
