This is the one reason why I utilize this because it's absolutely predictable that it will follow a Financial Mathematical Schedule of Principal and Interest Payments, as well as Balance reduction.Because the Amortized Mortgage is absolutely predictable, and I for one follow the RULE "If you can Predict it, you can Profit from it", I actually look to Maximize this within reason.So while I put down 20% for an Investment Property to maintain a level of skin in the game and reduction of risk by having an attractive interest rate, I generally take about mortgages around $1 Million or above.That is because the Mortgage, being paid by my renters, will follow a very predictable path, one which will make me a millions as each one gets reduced or paid off.In fact, if you receive ZERO cashflow but your Million dollar Mortgage disappears in 30 years, you have effectively made an average of $33,333 PER YEAR for 30 YEARS.And, if you consider that the Mortgage Interest is deductible, especially for a Rental Real Estate Business, you have earned even more than the Million dollar mortgage.For some reason, this kind of thinking is not taught ANYWHERE that I have seen.

A final note on REITs, they qualify for Qualified Business Income deductions when held in a taxable account, which makes them a little more tax-efficient to be held outside of IRAs.

I have about 3k in taxable income from stocks and I’m trying to understand how much of my losses I should sell off.I know the irs limits your losses to 3k per tax year.
