I am not high-frequency trader type by nature, with "balanced" risk/performance views if to be characterized by wall street terms... my goal to be equal or above 8% yield (really want to say 10% :)) while learning notes, hopefully getting into riskier assets with time (NPN) and getting into 15-18% territory within 3-5 years. 

The Courts have come up with their top fifteen items that they look for in determining the status: Taxpayer's purpose for acquiring, holding and selling the propertyNumber, frequency and continuity of salesDuration of ownershipTime and effort expended by the taxpayer in promoting salesTaxpayer's use of brokersExtent of improvements and subdivision made to facilitate salesOrdinary business of the taxpayerExtent and value of the taxpayer's real estate holdingsExtent and nature of the transactions involvedAmount of income from sales as compared with the taxpayer's other sources of incomeTaxpayer's desire to liquidate landholdings unexpectedly obtainedTaxpayer's overall reluctance to sell the propertyAmount of advertisingUse of a business office for salesTaxpayer's control over any sales representativesOf these, the most important issue appears to be the number, frequency, and continuity of sales.

Understanding REI, the velocity of money, leverage, and frequency of trade in a given area is one of the best ways to scale, grow, build cash flow, and create the ability to enter in those quality markets at scale as well.For example, if you had $30k and can only add another 20K to 30K at best per year for start-up capital, it would would take those 3 to 5 years to be able to possibly break into quality areas.
