So fast forward to the past year, I finally found a decent job working field sales for a popular energy and solar panel company which i am proud to be a part of, but at the end of the day it's still a job title where I have supervision, have little to no freedom, and little reward. 

I have found the in the Southeast area's of the country including Jacksonville it is approached more lightly.  

Is it OK to be a light hitting second baseman rather than a power hitting left fielder?

I respect the fact that a tenant needs to be able to lock their door, but this seems like one step away from changing a light bulb. 

Frame your offer in that light.

Your niche would be to buy around the college whereas you can take a 3 or 4 bedroom provide Wi-Fi, lights, and water, cable or direct TV, and rent each room for $500 per month to possible students.

Please for the sake of the light heartedness don't come in here saying you just want to take care of your family or replace your income and that's enough or that you reinvested cause that's smart.

If its an occupied foreclosure where the bank "knows nothing" and there are "no interior inspections - do not disturb tenants", at least visually inspect the exterior for signs of deferred maintenance and look for signs of occupancy like an empty mailbox @7pm, lights on, car tracks in snow, prior to making your offer. 

New flooring throughout, 2 completely redone bathrooms, took down walls to open the place up a bit, new doors, fresh paint, some crown, lots of patching, light kitchen remodel that include granite tops and an island with concrete top, new dishwasher and range, new HVAC units, moved some electrical around, new garage door, some fresh landscaping, added a fire pit, and gave the porch a facelift with some new posts.

Can someone shed light on this?
