In Search of Real Insight From This Great Community!

Background (short & sweet):

I started investing in February 2004 with two single family rentals and moved into developing, but got burned by contractors and the economy during the economic recession. As a result, I left the industry and focused on working a 9-to-5. In this day and time, a job is no more secure than real estate investing!

Today:

I've never loss the desire to be my own boss and I love real estate and I'm eager to restart my business. Because of my integrity, I still maintain good relationships with a few people in the industry, and, as a result, I get a lot of great  deals (mostly large multi-family), but I'm not in the position financially or structurally to do much with these opportunities.

Questions:

Given my previously expressed circumstances, I'd love to get some insight and suggestions from more established investors and real estate professionals, who are having success in the industry. As a single parent, I'm eager to provide my son with the life he deserves.
