So during the time you flip, you are building the passive stream up so that when you decide you're tired of flipping, you may have built enough passive streams to help you financially through that transition.Another opportunity you have, if it's something of any interest (may not be for a lot), is that you can start making your flipping more passive at some point.

I am tired of tenants deciding to move before the year up and not having consequences.

If you are a serious investor the tampa area is good (not too sure about orlando), plenty of "competition" but most are tire kickers, and like Dan said, there is plenty of inventory.

I am a numbers guy and I work with margins all day every day at my current job as a business analyst, I'm just tired of working for other people!

It is kind of cool to me that you brought this up because my latest guest  https://podcast4patriots.podbean.com/e/p4p-007-brian-burke/ ...was also a guest on Show#3 on BiggerPockets and I just read the awesome transcript: https://www.biggerpockets.com/bpp3-brian-burke-podcast-transcript-getting-started-raising-moneyBrian told me I would get tired of hearing his story, but the BP hosts were way more awesome than me at digging into the deals with him and I was glad to see my favorite line from his interview with me was verbatim to 6+ years ago: "I walked out of that room with $500,000 and 28 investors that all had guns."...if anyone has a better punchline than that...I'm looking forward to it! 

People who are going through a divorce, behind on their mortgage, inherited a house they don't know what to do with, have a 2nd house, are a tired landlord, have a house that won't sell retail because it needs work, and many more situations.  

I did buy 27 acres of rural land near that new Continental Tire factory in West Jackson/Hinds County.

Every good deal I see seems to get scooped up before I can get an offer in and I am getting tired of tossing 2k a month to my landlord. 

When people get tired unable to buy at Palo Alto, they may look at East Palo Alto. 

Account ClosedWith any sales job you will find there are more "tire kickers" than actual "buyers".
