First time poster here.
Wanted to get your thoughts on our situation, and see what you fine folks think about our ability to retire comfortably.
We are 59 and 54 and ready to retire....
Our assets include:
paid off Rental: $575k generating 2600 a month in rent. 5k in taxes.
Paid off primary custom home. 3 years old: $1.2M
Rental property 2: $260k. $100k mortgage. 1400 monthly rent income.
170k in stocks/iras. no 401k.
175k in cash in the bank.
Our thoughts were to sell the primary. Buy a 500k smaller house. buy 2 additional rentals each generating 2k a month. (conservatively possible in our area)
what are your general thoughts and suggestions?
We are somewhat burnt out and don't want to work until our bodies are broken before we retire. we don't want to work for more than 1 or 2 more years max. we are self employed at about 100k and 125k a year respectively.
We are in Virginia.
