I recommend doing both. 

I highly recommend the coaching.

Are there any resources that you'd recommend?

That said, I highly recommend speaking with a local professional in the DFW area to get insights tailored to your specific goals.

BiggerPockets also has a calculator to analyze deals, and I highly recommend you start this as soon as possible, even if you are not ready to buy.

@Wiley Hood to be honest, with all the new regulations around documentation for cost segregation that has come out, I recommend having a professional do them.

Having a long-term rental while living abroad is do-able.Flipping houses while abroad, in my opinion, more difficult, especially if its your first go around with real estate.I would recommend taking a flight and staying in the area for a week and inspect the neighborhoods and make connections.You can reach out to @Elenis Camargo who has a PM company in Jacksonville.Best of luck though.

If you're working with an investment brokerage, I'd recommend tapping into Tampa and Central Florida markets too—areas like Riverview, Wesley Chapel, and Brandon have been strong for both flips and long-term holds with steady demand.

Ask any asset protection attorney, and they will recommend WY, NV or DE as best states to use.

@Corbett Brasington,My recommendation would be to use a trusted attorney.
