Hello, I am working on my financial independence plan - my goal is to generate a passive income of $10k a month.

You need an independent third party to act as QI. 

Going back to John's post and example, someone hired to shovel the driveway or complete handyman work seems like an independent contractor relationship, not an employee relationship.

Not emotional goals like becoming financially independent, or quitting the Rat Race. 

Now, I have completed three transactions, which allows me to be independent without a team.

Let's also assume independent investor wants 12% annualized return on $100k investment.  

.), I've reformulated the base price to consider all these fees so that it better reflects the total price the guest is paying (independent of taxes).

They are independent from the title company. 

I run an independent real estate brokerage and property management company.

If i sell this, i may be able to net between 189k - 230k depending on what i get, not including fees (agent)  and capital gainsGoalTo be financially independent in 5 years or less so i can travel the world more.
