What is the End Game

It’s occurred to me that by listening to all the hype put forth about real estate investing by the mentors, gurus, reality TV shows, thinly researched newspaper articles, news reports etc.  that everyone interested in real property investments wants to quit their jobs, sell their businesses, get off the dole or avoid any type of employment by becoming a full time “real estate investor” read “fix n flip”. 

Having been in many aspects of commercial and investment real estate for 40 years, I know that just isn’t anywhere close to correct.  Many investors are looking for passive income, others would like to supplement a salary from a job or business they’re quite satisfied with; still others want an inflation hedge.

So I ask, what goal(s) are you wanting to accomplish by utilizing real estate investing?
