Financial Independence Day Get Rich Education

Your Financial Independence Day happens when your residual income stream amount exceeds your basic monthly expenses.
Rental demand is high for three big reasons: rates are rising, stringent mortgage qualification standards, housing undersupply.  
I answer three listener questions: Should I make a big down payment? Is borrowing at lower than inflation profitable? What about prepayment penalties?

Today, are ARMs beginning to make more sense than fixed-rate mortgages? We explore.
Learn about the cash-out refinance climate. Second mortgages on income properties are still limited.

Hey, welcome in to GRE. From San Luis Obispo, CA to Saint Louis, Missouri and across 188 nations worldwide, you’re back in that abundant place.

…and…
 
Airbnb enacts a permanent ban on parties. They & VRBO have long struggled with what to do about parties.
 
I just shared those stories with you in Friday’s newsletter. If you did
