Retire with Rentals

How many rental properties do you need to retire?

The answer to that question will be unique to each individual, depending on what they may need to feel comfortable in retirement. The internet is full of suggestions, and here are a few.

The surprising answer is that the number will likely be fewer than you might expect, assuming rents keep pace with future inflation. After 15-30 years, tenants have paid for the mortgage, and what is coming in the mailbox is pure cash flow.

Buy for cash flow now, and watch your retirement nest egg grow!

Happy investing!
