Currently, I'm juggling a W2 job that I'm not passionate about and my desire is to transition into full-time self-employment.Recently, I've been researching businesses for sale on platforms like LoopNet, including options like car washes, laundromats, cleaning services, and senior living care.

It's a juggling act, but defiantly possible. 

All the taxable wages and per diem stuff is part of the tax game the nurses have to juggle to afford paying for a home in one place, and paying for another where they work.

As you ramp up on the real estate side, you can begin to ramp down on other things, for me it took about 2 years of juggling.

Considering Primary Residence Investment property giving my family a roof over their heads with intent to invest in the property to rent or sell.Any feedback from anyone who has found themselves juggling the decision on what investment would work best with established midsize family.

With leverage, you will always have that high overhead to juggle.  

@Jonathan Duong I have good systems and outsourcing but there's still a lot of decision making you'll need to make and things to juggle. 

No trips to the bank to cash rent checks, to paper tenant applications, no need to juggle multiple rental/accounting software. 3) The basic version in Buildium is just Transunion SmartMove, the same DIY site that most landlords use and I think you get a discount through BP.

Even if your costs of borrowing equal your additional cash flow you'll still benefit by having much more depreciable basis, and potential for appreciation plus the amortization.To get good comparative numbers you'll need to spend a lot of time with the IRR calculation to determine asset location size and juggle the 1031/refi equation.  

But there have been many times where I've sort of juggled my financials and was glad that I didn't have mortgages to deal with.
