How would you turn $200K into full time real estate investing job
How would you turn $200K into a full time real estate investing career? My idea is to start with fix and flips to generate cash flow and then eventually purchase buy and hold properties. I like the idea of paying in cash instead of using a lender, but am I being too short sighted / cautious? If I tie up all my cash, I can only work on one property at a time, however, going slow and steady may be a good idea since I am so new. This is my new career and my only focus. I look forward to hearing your thoughts and advice.

@Ashley A. I am in the same situation. $200k and I am fix and flipping. I choose to go with financing so that I would be able to do 2-3 projects at a time vs 1. I am posting my journey in a blog if you are interested, check it out.
