Ready to leave my W-2

[Heather Schmidtknecht]

I started purchasing rental property in 2018, and I’m ready to transition to this full-time within the next 2-3 years, which means leaving my W-2.

I’m posting here to gather some insight as to how to prepare myself, as I still have two pre-teen children at home.

How do I position myself for future financing without a W-2? I’m guessing net income from my portfolio would be considered as well as equity within my portfolio — anything else??

How accessible is affordable but comprehensive health insurance for a family outside of the W-2 employer/employee setting??

Are there other things I need to be planning for this transition??
