If you are looking for $30K -$50K profits per deal (NET) with the occasional $60K+ then we are speaking the same language.

I suppose there could be the very occasional situation where I represent a friend or family member but otherwise it is just my own traffic.Do you have a recommendation for an investor-friendly broker that will keep the fees the lowest?

I'm also trying to be 100% remote one day.The only down side I see to virtual is the being careful about costs of undeliverable mail blasts and occasionally needing them to forward certain pieces.

I lend occasionally.

I only bring HVAC onsite for repairs and very occasional cleaning/inspections - like every 5 years.

The good thing about occasionally chiming in with something incredibly wrong is that it brings the experts out to set things straight.

Occasionally I do some wholesale deals in Orange County, but focus on multi family out of state. 

My mentor is a contractor running his own business and also buys rentals and does occasional flips, so we were lucky to have existing relationships with nearly every trade already.   

He has a girlfriend attending graduate school in another state who may occasionally visit. 

I'll occasionally send her a little "bonus" out of the blue and of course a holiday bonus/gift.
