Are you referring to stress related to management (vacancy, turn-over, time commitment, ...)

This year, I'm hoping to finish up writing in the next 2 months (I'm tired of writing again, but have one more commitment to complete) and then not write anything new for at least another year or two. 

I’m committed to approaching it with humility and eagerness to learn.

What personal time commitment are you willing to put in?

I would wait until you know what you need to get out of a mentorship before jumping in with that big a financial commitment.

I would get at least 2-3 quotes on projects before you commit to it.

Start with low-commitment options like REITs, gradually exploring bigger deals as you gain confidence and market knowledge.

This strategy allows you to potentially make a quick profit without the commitment of having to live in the property for a certain period of time.Alternatively, you could also look into investing in rental properties in different cities where you have connections or where you see potential for growth.

Another great way to prevent this is to use and commit to a property management system.

No appraisals ( I do my own valuations) I ordered title through my title company got title commitment in 48 hours..
