I am more likely to take a risk, but i suspect when my husband is out from under a controlling baby mama, he won’t mind a little risk either.I love Texas, try to vacation there often and my husband is aligned with Texas farm property as a ten year long term goal.I’m also passionate about the trades and if i could do it all again I’d be part owner of some kind of builder or remodeler or specialty trades business. 

Ramsey, your game plan seems like a great idea.

It sounds like you’ve got an exciting plan mapped out, and I love that you’re thinking of starting a property management business while building your own portfolio—that’s a smart move.

Vacation rentals are usually much nicer, are close proximity to attractions (beach, mountains, lake, theme park etc) and have nicer or more ammenities.

Exemptions to getting a 2nd FHA loan per HUD handbook are:-Job relocation 100 miles away or in another state-Increase in family size-Vacating a jointly owned home (ie - divorce or the like)

You’re building a thoughtful plan that’s set up for success.

That is something that is growing due to the limitations of STR.MTR is something that will help you but you will have to be a bit flexible in the times that you are planning to come in.Management is cheaper than STR, but you have to consider other factors such as close to places where those MTR are in need.

I am serving her a notice to vacate at the end of her lease in feb. 

Investing in Hawaii sounds like an amazing plan!
