Look at how badly her cardboard cutout wants YOU to escape the "rat race" and take control of your life (at least that's what I'm gathering from the not-at-all-ambiguous testimonials...)!

In fairness, it's difficult to budget for heat when you realize your are living in a home with single pane windows and insulated with horse hair from the 1900s.

My dream has always been to have my own little acreage and have my horses in the backyard, but still be close enough to the city to commute to my job there.

Now, you're off to the races :) 

I don't change horses mid-stream and tiptoe through the tulips.

Hoping to get into development as primary but the raw land race is highly competitive in my area.

I think it's hard to argue that agents aren't overcompensated.Here's why this will fail: "Trelora's model is also different in that it pushes for flat fees on both sides of the home transaction, something traditional brokers argue will trigger a destructive race to the bottom."

: ) And while the clock is ticking, I feel like I am in a race to get to your position, before it is too late.May I ask (and if you want to go offline that is fine), what path did you need to take; goals, strategies, use of leverage until no longer needed, etc, to get to where you are now?

I am just looking to manage 10+ properties (or more) with a friend or by myself and running a small horse boarding/trail riding facility out of my house and stop being tied down going in to work on someone else's dream ya know.

My motive it to expand my assets and create money (as Robert from Rich Dad Poor Dad would say) and get out of the Rat Race.
