I recently considered shifting some of my REI business back to wholesaling lease options which I did successfully for several years. 

If I'm looking away from home, I'd choose markets where the rules and laws are in the landlords favor, or at least not against them.As you look at neighborhoods, remember, you're shifting your odds of a problem, not eliminating them.

I've read a couple RE books, Gary Keller "Shift" and Michael Maher "The Seven Levels of Communication."  

Since I am able, I listen to podcasts to educate myself while still working an 8 hour shift.

Alrighty, I'll start preparing for the exciting shift over the coming weeks :-)

:) I've already shifted my reading to more real estate focused.

Borrowers today are actually qualified to buy a home.I think there is a demographic shift towards more rentals and less home ownership.

There is a reason for why we cannot pinpoint an event in the future, because there are other events that affect that point in time, so, things shift.

Helps me stay on top of the market and identify shifts in preferences. 

It's time to shift back into action and find out how many people would rather just turn over their problems to someone else.See you at the top!
