1.

I am curious how many of you guys own your own home? I ask because my focus for the past several years has been paying off the mortgage. Now that I can see the light at the end of the tunnel I can feel comfortable owning rentals.

2.

If I pay off my house and have no mortgage payment isn't that + cash since I no longer have to pay for a place to live and I can pocket or re-invest the money?
