Should I Go Back To W-2? Or Stick With 1099?

[Jazeel Collins]

Hello , I’m new to real estate and looking to close on my first property by 2022 . Here’s my question .. Should I get back in the workforce as a W-2 employee ? Or should I continue working as a courier where I can accumulate cash faster for my first property .

I previously was let go due to Covid about 4 months ago working as a plumber W-2 making a salary of about 50k after 3 years with this company. Started this delivery job making a salary of about 70k (1099). I’ve had income from this delivery job in the past while working as a plumber during my free time .

So far I have about 25k saved up towards my first property .
