I hope your real estate endeavors are fruitful!

There is always a way to find the "low hanging fruit" you just need to know where to look and work with the right people!

An example I am aspiring to is a social media "persona" developed by Matt Piche (aka Fruitful Invesor) from Waterloo who had build quite a business partering up with people.

That will probably take more cash to get in now, but may provide more fruit later.

Personally, I decided to keep my W2 while expanding my real estate portfolio for the above reasons and it has been very fruitful. 

People representing themselves and doing activities held out for agents and brokers even though they were either not acting in that capacity or were not licensed to begin with. 

Buying turnkey and adding small updates here and there has proven far more fruitful for myself and other buyers (unless you have too much cash lol). 

To further clarify for investors AND for agents that don't dive deep into this stuff, AZ STR restrictions ONLY come from CC&R's or other subdivision restrictions- notice I am NOT saying restrictions come from HOA's.

If that's the case, it applies for ages 19-23, as well (unless he provides over half of his own support).

He wants out of the business completely. he just wants to retire and enjoy the fruits of his labor.
