Diversification or Focal Investing
Hello everyone,
I am currently working on flips, an agent, a landlord, and just started a role as developer in the real estate world. I seem to be slightly overwhelmed at times and know that real estate investing is in my DNA, but is this the best approach?
I was able to flip 3 homes, close 31 deals, and keep the one renter happy and paying all year in 2019. I hope to grow my rental market more in 2020, do 5 flips, work at least 50 deals as an agent, and develop more homes (to list) while working with a builder. I’m also looking into getting my builders license.
Any advice or direction is welcomed. I want to make sure my wife can stay home with our growing family and we can also retire when I turn, or before I turn, 55.
Thank you!
Diversify,
Grant
