Open a clothes shop, open a coffee shop, make money on ebay, become a used car salesperson- there are many things that allow you to make money besides this.

Not a bad idea to shop around at a few spots.

Looking to shop my policy around.

Best thing you can do is find an insurance broker that will shop each renewal to ensure you have the best coverage for the best cash flow. 

Thanks every body,

I would reach out to the short-term shop and speak with one of their OBX agents.

But you may need to review your current holding and fill in the holes so that your ship is tight and can weather storms for you to leave a W2 long-term.The above is regardless of whether you want to do SFR, MFR, Officers, Land, development, or Shopping centers.

The Short Term Shop has a local office that has very experienced agents in the OBX as well.

As well as coffee shops like Bottoms Up Coffee are moving in and small microbreweries like brew dog and land grant.

If you see a retail shopping center with one or more vacancies, hop on google/yelp/etc to find out what business used to be there (old yelp reviews, for example).
