I'm lucky to have made some good money at my last startup, so I'm hoping to parlay that into a real estate business and avoid the city lifestyle.When I'm not working, I enjoy riding my horse, flying planes and working on my house.

After reading info here on the forums, listening to your podcasts, and everything else, I now feel like I don't have to wait 20 years to get out of this rat race.

Enough of the rat race!  

While  in contract,  I saw a   foreclosure property in a neighborhood I want to live, great price, (Under 30) great location next to a  Golf Courses, casino and a race track but it needs work..  

The gist is that all mechanicals must work, except as stated before the AC.I think you need to bring these questions to you lending broker/bank to see what the information is from the horse's mouth so you can go forward confidently and not loose money on inspections that could have been avoided.Best of luck!

I know the topic that I'm inquiring about has probably been addressed and/or beaten with a dead horse but I'm really not trying to allow my fear of the unknown to stop me from jumping in and taking action like I did 10 years ago when the passion for real estate investing took hold of my soul but I feel that there are a few things I need to set up before starting my direct mail campaign. i.e. having certain team members in place such as a closing attorney and an investor-friendly agent for valuation of deals.

From your responses it sounds like I'm putting the cart before the horse. 

If that's the case, you'll just have to let it go - you don't want to race to the bottom and find yourself working for free or worse, paying for an expensive lesson in patience/negotiation.There may be more creative solutions here as well.

Am i beating a dead horse by asking when you will be moving to FL to start a PM company?
