@Frank GregCorrect - I worked 4 years at PwC's tax department.PwC is the largest public accounting firm and their segments are Audit/Assurance, Consulting and Tax.Professionals normally work in one segment instead of all three.It is possible to change from one segment to another but again, professionals do not simultaneously work across all the segments.I wish your client finds the right professional.

Simultaneously, consider cutting some of the 80% (fat) to yield better results and begin to optimize your business/investments.I hope this helps!

Upon onset, it rendered me unable to continue the work I loved while simultaneously sparking an old interest in real estate.

In reality, this is not exactly the case.You get two simultaneous events: tax losses from rental properties and capital gains from stocks.

First of all they are not ringless.On m’y phone i have at least one ring from the first call that is placed when the second simultaneous call goes to voicemail.Not only it is intrusive but also the message stating “I tried to reach you but I can’t and leave you a voicemail instead” is a blatant lie to your face.Last my number is on a do not call list and these stupid companies don’t even check the database first.For all these reasons, I proves to me that these companies are liars and violating laws, so why in hell do you believe that I want to have any business with such bad actors?

His take is that there was a simultaneous spike in demand and drop in supply.

Since you have capital you can simultaneous search for a true rental property as well.

That would allow me to have my cake and eat it to (finish existing projects while simultaneously buying the land for the future business). 

Find something you can live in and rent out simultaneously and let your roomate or tenant pay the mortgage.

I prefer to be strategic on which properties I make offers on, instead of floating many offers simultaneously.
