While family's typically don't want to move during the school year, your professionals take new jobs or are ready to move anytime of year.  

I am in the Houston area and my primary goal is to become financially free and look to enjoy more quality time with my family as I do want to move away from the day to day desk job.

I would send this to the insurance commission in FLA and they will investigate I am sure.. that would be easier than the FBI as those guys basically just go for the big fish and this guy in the scope of things is  just a tad pole. hey great job everyone.. 

Pay a tuition for a degree that would take me 2 yrs and then who knew how long it would take to find a job or 2.

Also, focus on 2 years of job/income stability.Class D Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with little, maybe even negative, relative rent & value appreciationVacancy Est: 20%+ should be used to cover nonpayment, evictions & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores under 560 (almost 30% probability of default), little to no good tradelines, lots of collections & chargeoffs, recent evictions.

It does not mean someone who opens a business, and doesn't necessarily mean your created or invented something new.It means you are First a Visionary, and Second willing to take the risk.Many people who are responsible, got a great job, saved money, and then want to run a real estate business - are very risk averse (opposite of Entrepreneurism).

A luxury yacht or a dream car or something?

This is very important so see if you can stick with me here.A motivated seller is not someone that want to, needs to, or even has to sell their house (like foreclosure, tax liens, job loss etc. etc.).A motivated seller is anyone willing to sell their house below market value regardless of the reason why.So it is the willingness to sell below market value is what separates a seller from a motivated seller.Take someone in foreclosure.
