If you are buying a home to serve as an income property, you might be able to afford to spend a little more (assuming you can find a tenant to pay rent regularly) than if you simply plan to move in and raise a family. It makes sense to wait to buy until your consumer debt is mostly handled. What happens if I lose some of my income?

The Frugal Girl

Although my parents never specifically taught me about finances, they lived a frugal life by necessity. When they got married, they bought a duplex so that the rent money from the tenant in the upstairs apartment would pay the mortgage. I grew up in banking and held other finance-related positions during my working years.

Some platforms invest in equity (stock), while others invest in debt. What if you’re unable to rent out your property?
