Direct answer
15–25 stabilized doors typically replace a $60–100k retirement income.
Expanded explanation
Computation: target annual income ÷ net cash flow per door = door count. Stabilized = 80%+ LTV paid down or fully owned. Mix of cash flow and equity build matters more than door count alone.
Examples
- $80k income ÷ $4k/door annual = 20 doors.
