tklines asked:

Renting now with no liquid savings. Retiring in 3-5 years from LA area. Looking for a retirement home in parts of the US without extremes of weather. Should we buy now and rent it out til we get there? Or continue to rent and buy when we’re ready to move? If we buy now, we’ll be unable to save any money at all. If we wait, prices will only go up. What is a better financial choice for the long run?

Jay4our asked:

If I am able to produce a 20% down payment on a ~$150k-200k property every year or two, will I be able to keep purchasing homes and renting them out as investment properties? Are there limits of any kind on the amount of loans banks will provide, assuming the profits are invested back into the business and mortgage payments are always paid on time? Or are there other investments that would have better payoffs.

chilask asked:

I intend to run my own real estate investment company and would like the following questions answered. My understanding is that the pros use hard money to fund their deals and if they dont sell the rent the property. After some analysis i realized that after rehabing the property and you decide to rent, 90% of the time the rental doesnt cover the mortagage. How long do you have to carry the negative loss assuming you have 10 properties at one time ?
