  The goal: 1. Retirement Equity Portfolio of $1,000,000 2. Passive income from Rental Portfolio of $70,000 3. Annual Passive Income of $100,000 (rental income + dividends combined) We are currently mortgage free but won’t be including the value of our principal residence or cottage as we have no plans to sell either. We have also omitted the value of our workplace defined benefit pension plans and children’s RESP. COMMENTARY: I've missed a few updates but hope to get back on schedule. Over the last four months I've refinanced most of the rental properties and shuffled money around to pay down my higher interest loans. As a result the amount owing on some of the rentals has changed dramatically but the overall amount owing is still the same. No money was taken out of the rentals for other purchases. Our investment accounts have also had some pretty wild swings since January due to the fickle on and off of US tariff policies. ASSETS. Jan to May Contributions: $13,700 Retirement ...

We have also omitted the value of our workplace defined benefit pension plans and children’s RESP. COMMENTARY: There hasn't been any major changes since the last update. Our most recent rental is now all fixed up and tenanted. We're taking a breather and deciding if we're going to continue to add to our rental portfolio or just concentrate on our equity portfolio going forward. ASSETS.

We purchased another rental and have been extremely busy getting it ready for tenants. We also had our rental properties re-evaluated by an appraiser. The re-evaluations coupled with the stock market appreciation we've been having has increased our retirement net worth by a whopping $351,919. ASSETS.

COMMENTARY: I've decided that my goal of $60,000 in passive income was too low to support all our retirement plans. I'm moving the goal post up a whopping $40,000 to $100,000 of passive income a year. I'm also changing my second goal to be cash flow based as opposed to value based. The new goal is $70,000 of passive income from our rental portfolio. This makes more sense to be as we'll be living off the cashflow and and not the property value. ASSETS.
