Account Closed, That's a little too rich for my  blood not to mention a little over my budget parameters and investment criteria.

As residential rental investors (aka buy and hold), our life blood come from our target customer: renters. 

There are exceptions, of course, but you can't get blood from a stone.  

Kind of like nursing when you study biochem and biology first, but at some point you have to take real blood and hear a real heartbeat and all the other fun stuff you have to see-feel-touch to be really good.No reason you can't get licensed in WA now and if you move back, get your FL license too, but might be easier and helpful if you pick where you want to live and will stay for a while and get licensed there.

2) Put that $200k into a money market fund that yields 5.5% and wait until there is blood in wall street and let the stock market crash into March 2009, then put that entire $200k into the a low expense S&P 500 index fund like the Vanguard Index 500 and forget about it for 30 years. 

I understand this can be a personal request for some because a lot of work, trial and error, blood, sweat, and tears go into curating such a masterpiece and what makes a “good” proforma is when it’s tailored specifically to your own private business.

I dont see how this city is going to turn around if the mentality of the people don't change or some fresh blood comes in.

We’ve literally built our wealth investing when there’s blood in the streets.

Otherwise these ''blood suckers'' will suck you dry.

Account ClosedI might add that the counties/municipalities are like sharks - once they smell blood they won't relent.
