Hi, I am looking to start a property management company in the Boston area.

Some of the questions that tun through my mind is, if I leave my job and move to Florida, what will I do for income in the meantime while i work on purchasing a property.I’m currently living in Boston and want to move back to Florida soon so I can house hack.Any advise on how to just take the step and overcoming my fear?

A poor town on a river, on one of the busiest interstates, with transportation growth that it has happening all around it.
