My goal is to not be a "shark" in this industry but i just want to have everything running by a certain age then relax.

What are some of the other techniques you are using to get convertible leads other than direct mail.I agree with you btw.

But not everyone wants to be a landlord/lady, and some really do get the technique and systems down for successful flips and become wealthy doing it.

Having said that, you should relax and search for more investment opportunities, and keep an eye on the one you tried to buy. 

I'd like to take my home equity and move to either Kentucky or Tennesee ,and start my realestate empire, by using the house hack technique.

Thank you all for welcoming me, I look forward to listening to the pod cast to get more educated on what's new, what's old and what's works today, I know a lot has changed in the last 4-5 years, with the housing market, even in a good market for homebuyers, I need to be more sharp on what applications and techniques work, I also have a question is it better to be a realtor in the investing segment of real estate?

If the investor did a good job buying in low vacancy counties AND uses good property management or good tenant finding techniques, then you should have very low vacancy.  

The main focus of the cause was targeted at the financial industry for its relaxed lending requirements, banking regulations, and “predatory” lending practices.

If it is 8%, then you should buy an index fund and relax.

To me video games are a total waste of time but don't discount the need to disconnect sometimes and just relax.
