The Time Is Now.
The time is now to take action. I keep having the thought of how great it would be to be a real estate investor. Being able to work for myself is something that really motivates me. The normal 9-5 trading your time for money is no longer for me. I refuse to be average. Which in today's society is being in debt and living pay check to pay check.
I understand that real estate is risky. But I think be average is more risky. I no real estate isn't easy however waiting for Friday to come to buy groceries would be harder.
People live there life's and I'm sure they have regrets. Thinking about the times they should have tried something or said yes. I already have a few in my lifetime. I don't want real estate to be one of those greats. The biggest risk I have right now is getting comfortable with my current situation and settling. Never wanting to better myself or improve my life.
This is just a little bit of a rant and thoughts I have been having. That I needed to vent and say. I currently have two offers on two separate properties that are located by the beach. In hopes to make one a vacation property/ second home. I believe if I run it like a business I could turn it into a full time job for myself. That's my goal and that's what I will do! Time is the only thing in between.
