It transitioned over to me in March2) How the rent checks were handled prior to you inheriting the IRA? 

Really I am looking for any kind of advice from people who have transitioned from part time to full time investors.

What success have others had when transitioning from a traditional 9 to 5 job to full time real estate investing? 

they get  a proration of the gain tax free and move into their next transitional retirement house.

I think it would be much harder for a new investor trying to get started by investing out of state than it would be for an experienced property owner to transition a property over to third party management.

I also thought SeaTac had a reputation as being "blue collarish" but it reportedly is right in the middle of Seattle and Tacoma offering great path to progress and easy commute to Seattle (via rapid transit)....Alaska Air's HQ is right next to property and there are massive expansion plans, which looks to be a plus...On the other hand, I cannot help wondereing how many potential tenants want to  next to an airline construction activity and a casino.

- TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES: $522K, NOI: $445K, Debt Service: $240K, CASH FLOW: $200/door/month.So...this is based on potential rents which means I will have a year or two of transition and potential CAPEX expenses.  

I would really like to invest in multifamily properties but I know that is a big leap as a beginner so I plan to first start off with single family properties and transition into multi family properties and maybe commercial(who knows).I am mainly looking at properties in and around houston for investing.

How do you guys help them adjust and transition to their situation?

so true @Jay Hinrichs, in pockets of higher end homes in Dallas, its actually transitioned to a sellers market with over 7-8 months of inventory, vs other areas selling like hot cakes...
