However, there will come a time when self management may not be possible because it simply takes up too much time  - time which you could be using to invest in more rental properties, spend time with family or travel.

We've stayed in Hurricane and in Springdale before and I much prefer the former (as a traveler).

I also went to college, not that it is mandatory, and I got a business degree that emphasized real estate while recovering from a medical priblem.  

After buying - by chance - a 'high cash-flow' apartment as first property in Malta, my husband and I realised that Real Estate Investing could help us reach our goals: financial, geographical & time freedom.We are already working online, allowing us to travel frequently for long periods of time.

Ask if there have been any big (500+) job announcements recently.And for me personally, invest in an area you actually enjoy traveling to (for me that's a place without cold harsh winters).

Food and traveling are the two most important parts of my life!  

I am a New York resident working in the medical field with a vision of one day being able to provide my family with more then I ever could being a real estate investor than an employee.

After the transition I took the job of renovating the old site to make a new medical office.

I'm thinking about what moves to make in the near future and thought I'd ask for thoughts from anyone who's traveled my path before.
