If you really want to supplement your income, my thought would be to take out a HE loan (or some other 2nd position loan) and use that to fund a down payment on a property.

Looking to create a few businesses on the farm to help supplement our goals.

I want to get into real estate investing on the side for the long term goal of hopefully retiring early and supplementing income.

In addition we would like the flexibility for me to be able to supplement my income or leave my employer as we see fit.

You can work limited hours in so many different capacities that you want to keep that for longer than you think to keep supplementing more options.

Or is RE just a supplement?

However my wife does buy bikinis sight unseenHowever....that is about as far as I go in agreeing with youThe clients of Morris Invest have reported--Endless lies about the scope, state of completion of rehab, lack of accounting of rehab funds and flat out crappy work and in some cases no work at all done-Leases on properties that are vacant, supplementing the actually amount of rent without the clients knowledge in order to increase returns. 

Instead of valuing sales skills among listing agents, we would seek agents who might be sales-allergic but knowledgeable about real estate transactions and empathic.

As a creative professional historically "allergic to math," I never thought I'd consider real estate investing, but life is full of surprises!

I thought to myself and thought the workshops must be very intensive.For me, the 3-day Real Estate Workshop was held at Roosevelt's Hotel.First Day:I was given two booklets--1) Real Estate Workbook (wich supplements the book they gave out before the workshop)2) Real Estate Elite Workshop Events Catalog (which I first thought was the daily schedule for the workshop but later found out it's an information packet on the $39,500 "elite" courses that they sell)The ironic part is that, through this three-day event, the so-called instructor Jason Jones referred to the Ad packet "Real Estate Elite Workshop Events Catalog" SIX times (he literally asked us to take it out and flip to certain page) and didn't mention ANYTHING nor asking us to read the "Real Estate Workbook ".
