Good afternoon everyone, I’m Mario 🙋🏻‍♂️ 34 year old just out here chasing goals one day at a time. #KnowledgeisPower - Why do I want to start saving money on taxes? For me, It’s taking things to the next level. Learning and gaining more knowledge to then be able to implement to my day to day life, continuing to chase after my goals, and ultimately financial freedom. - Where am I right now in my journey? Currently renting, but I do have and own 1 home since converted into a LTR. Currently in the process of a tenant I’ve had since 08/2024, finishing their last month with me so I’ll be either filing the home again, or possibly converting the home to a possible STR. 🤷🏻‍♂️ We shall see soon! I locked in a 2.75% interest rate on my mortgage loan so I have absolute no rush or interest in paying it off. - What’s my #1 challenge right now? I feel perhaps if I did not have to be so hands on with this current project, finding the tenants, screening them, and getting it filled again would be THE domino that would make things better again and I would be able to refocus my time and energy towards other goals or hobbies I have. But I also do know I need to decide which option may be a better fit for me and the rental home. Hopefully I will determine that in the next few weeks to come.
