On April 4th, I met my first goal of the year! I closed on my third rental property
There was a delay with a lot of rain to finish repairs but it will be on the market for lease as of 04/10.
I’m starting the property at $1350/mo in the hopes of getting at least $1300/mo in rent.
I still have 9 more goals to reach this year. If I had to guess which one I’d hit next, I’ve have to say it would be to reach 25k page views in a month. I’ve passed 22k twice this year, once in January and once in March so far.
Some of the goals I’ve set may be a little of a stretch this year but I’ll certainly do my best to reach them.
All of my goals are posted on my goals tab.
Cool stuff!! Congrats!!.
FFdividend,
Thanks! This goal finished sooner than expected but I had to jump on a pretty good deal.
Cheers!
Congratulations AAI. It’s great to get another asset working for you. Good work on 22k page views also. I’m sure 25k will come to you soon enough

Thanks Bryan,
I never thought this many people would be interested in what I’m doing. Hopefully I’m motivating a few while keeping my actions in check since I post them all.
Take care!
Keep filling up that Monopoly board!
MDP,
Haha, I always liked Monopoly as a kid. These are no Boardwalk or Park Place but maybe a Baltic Avenue lol.
Thanks for stopping by!
Congrats on closing AAI! Nothing like adding to the machine!
W2R,
It’s a great feeling having another property that is mine. I’d even consider adding a second this year instead of adding more to my portfolio if the right opportunity arises.

I’d like to buy a primary residence within the next two years! Time to start saving free cash to that effect. I would like to rent out a portion of my primary residence to generate more cash.
Also, we just past 20k views TOTAL – a bit envious of your achieving that monthly!
Hi Wallet,
I actually did just that with my first house. When I was starting my business, I found a roommate that lived with my current Wife and me. The extra money certainly helped and it’s a great way to bring in extra cash flow.
Congrats on 20k page views. You have start somewhere. Just keep writing and inspiring and people will come. I’ve been at this for about 2 years now.
Take care!
Congratulations! Being diversified into real estate is a goal I have yet to achieve. Housing in our neck of the woods is just too expensive for the numbers to make sense, and I can’t quite get into the idea of owning property in another part of the country I’m not familiar with…
FerdiS,
That’s exactly what I’m going for. Diversification is key and I like holding some physical assets.
I can understand that each part of the country is different. If I was in the Bay area I’d have a hard time buying any property, not sure where you are. However, I’m now looking in the suburbs since that’s the only place I can get positive cash flow right now.
Take care!
Yup! We’re in the Bay area…
Love real estate as that is my favorite asset class. The tax benefits are the best. Congrats on the property. To financial independence my friend.
Hi Charles,
I’m a big fan of leveraging your money to own an asset that will certainly appreciate in value over the long-term. The tax benefits which are not often talked about are huge and it helps diversify away from the stock market.
FI is right around the corner.
