Buy and hold investor looking for another business model
Right now I have a property. Buy and hold using your own money is great, but it's slow. I really like RE and I'm trying to think of ways I can get more involved.
Here are my thoughts:
Property Management - I would find this very stressful and have even outsourced this on my own property
RE Agent - Sales personality, not for me
Manage other people's money - Takes time to build a track record. This is a possibility. But it would also require connections.
Bird dogging/wholesaling - I don't really find this appealing.
Flipping - I have a full time job. I don't find this appealing. right now. It's very competitive in my area, with lots of cash buyers.
Guru - haha
Can anyone else think of another model I'm missing?

Your very focused on what you don't want to do. What do you want to do? What are you good at? Do you have more money or time? What skills would you consider assets?
Focus on what you can offer, then the role that suits you will be more apparent. It doesn't work in reverse.
