Occasionally I have had someone snip at me and tell me I ask too many questions.

This is a new issue (I've run into this behavior occasionally in the past, but lately it seems to be happening with every other showing) and it is perplexing me.

So when i think about it as we age out and if your going to buy top notch health insurance .. even with your home paid for and no other debt  10k a month could be comfortable but its not extravagant by any means maybe a few vacations a year etc.

Currently, I am working with a friend doing mobile notarizations (mostly R/E closings) trying to help him build up something akin to a brokerage, which is hit and miss, but it does afford me occasional time I can put to use (upgrading skills to get a better paying position or possibly hiring out with a rehabber so I can learn some skills from an experienced R/E investor). 

I am also originally from Cleveland, and currently I live in the Bay Area (occasionally I feel tempted to move back to Cleveland as you did... but then I remember what January can be like and that notion is quickly extinguished).

With a bike and the occasional uber you are fine there.

Would like to purchase additional investment properties, a home we could use occasionally on the water or near.

There is occasional turnover, and while that does take more effort, we have it down to a science… our last empty unit we listed for 4 HOURS on Zillow and had 57 inquiries that got us 6 qualified applicants and cost us about $2.50 to list on Zillow. again, being a full time job this is really child’s play as to how much time the typical occurrences take.  

Please let me know how you guys are dealing with thisHi Rakesh.I see this same topic surface occasionally here on BP.Nope, 1% is not dead.

But ultimately most sellers want to walk away with a boat load of cash but occasionally you run into a seller who needs something other than cash.
