- The market is in a little bit of a lull right now (buyers market), its a great time to buy, but slower time to sell (my primary business is flipping houses) I can supplement my flipping business by providing project management services/consulting, helping investors find discounted properties, etc. etc.

I don't have any specifics but as someone who is into tech, accounting/finance, and a consultant to grow businesses.

How about the local business's.

One of our favorite discoveries is that IT'S TRUE, dream opportunities DO land in your lap, the longer you're in business! 

First of all, do not take any money out of the business, because you will need it.

And even if I do not get into the renting business I can make some profit if I decide to sell the property at some point.

I have sold a couple of businesses as well, and speaking from experience, you are never more vulnerable to make a mistake than when you are sitting on a giant pile of cash.Also, I agree with @Corey Conklin - I'm a big fan of "overflow cities/towns" in the sun belt.

You’re running a business not a charity after all. 

I am glad to be doing business with his company.

Some go out of business.
