Afford Anything · Tuesday, July 7, 2026
A listener named Jack asks for advice on deploying $425,000 from a home sale, specifically a $275,000 allocation to a taxable brokerage and $100,000 towards a rental property down payment. He also inquires about the right time to assemble a financial team and what to prioritize.
“First, we are about to receive 425k from the sale of our home. My wife is driving our real estate research and is currently enrolled in your rental property course, so we expect to buy within three to six months.”
“Is now the right time to assemble that team and what should we prioritize first?”
