With your schedule it would be beneficial to find a way to invest passively or semi-passively by either lending to an investor who is doing things in your market, or through an established online platform or fund that you invest in completely passively.

These have been really beneficial so far as well as the advice I have received on this post.Thanks to the postings I seem to have some more due diligence that I need to do to determine the size and exact markets.  

I see a lot of oppurtunities on a weekly basis that might be a little to low of a return for myself but others with their money in CD's and mutual funds would most likely love.Thoughts, opinions?

While a little sightseeing and meandering is ok and can even be beneficial, ultimately, you have to select a destination before you can mapout your route to get there.I could be completely wrong, of course, but from your post it sounds likeyou are unsure of your goals?

Tips on how to organize time and effort will be quite beneficial.

My highest risk, lowest income apartment buildings are owned by land trusts with LLCs as the beneficial interest.

I think it will be beneficial for netoworking and getting to know your own local market etc....

Would hope you can provide some great beneficial information to those on the site!
