Over-analyzer, Type-A, Newbie!

[Stacy Buzon]

Does my title doom me in real estate?!?!  I'm new to the real estate investment world, but have been listening to as many podcast episodes as I can, while also trying to read as many books as I can.  The basic idea of having an appreciative asset that I could potentially utilize later in life in a multitude of ways is exciting.  I currently enjoy my full time job in health care, but would love to cut down on my hours in another 5-10 years. Enter Real Estate and my contractor husband. I have his expertise and time to our advantage, but have become hung up on analytics. I'm conservative in nature, but am looking for the push to jump in at some point. Trying to narrow down which strategy will best suit our goals and lifestyle is my current focus, and I am looking forward to having meaningful conversations here on these forums.
