Full Time Job Hours and REI

[Scott Arno]

Hey everyone,

This is sort of a backwards question compared to all the podcasts and stories celebrating quitting a day job for REI. Pretty much the opposite. I'm a recent masters degree graduate, so naturally I have no money, but am hard working and ambitious to begin REI. I plan to invest with seller financing, most likely subject-to deals for FSBO with a buy and hold strategy. I'm still in the learning phase but few months I'll be looking for deals. Simultaneously, I'll be job hunting. I work in the medical field and the jobs I'm interested in have the option to work normal work days, evenings, or nights. Which shift would be optimal to market, field calls, and meet with sellers based on my strategy?

I ask this because I've heard sellers doing seller financing often have full time jobs too so meetings tend to happen in the evenings. In that case it seems to me a normal 9-5 day would be fine.

Thank you,

Scott
