FL and TX have been very popular and have large markets we try to help revitalize as well! 

I could tell you of countless others doing the same at scale.

Best way to scale and build wealth is to 1031 exchange and I can help show you examples here in KC. 

Use this as a way to secure downpayment, then refinance and pay back the loan to secure your cryptocurrency.That said however, I think real estate investing is going to change dramatically over the next several years, largely due to smart contracts and tokenization.

This could significantly increase the sale price and net profit after selling.Pros of Selling: Immediate large cash flow that could be reinvested elsewhere (stocks, other real estate).

Now I own a thriving property management business, run a real estate team helping other investors learn how to grow and scale their portfolios, I have my own modest investment portfolio and have two development projects going at the moment.

I am currently contracted to a large major energy company and I work a 2 week rotation in West Texas, so two weeks on and two weeks off.  

The goal is to build confidence, learn, and set a solid foundation for scaling later.

These questions come to mind for me: Is your credit card limit large enough to fund the purchases and rehabs you are considering?

There are some very aggressive investors that refi into interest only products to free up even more cash in the short term - this can be much more risky though, so not recommended if you are not very experienced and have large reserves.
