Or should I stay where I am and use my equity in the house plus my savings to borrow money for flips and/or income producing property?

$2 million of equity will produce a very nice return.

Lot's of drama in this post but I am in the used/scratch and dent camp and believe that everything five years old or less is Chinese Crapola and not worth fixing...there are used appliance stores all over Raleigh and Atlanta, and Craigslist will produce lots of used stuff as well...disclaimer: one thing I am not is a lawyer...

I know that in Maryland , you can not have a flame producing furnace in the attic , heat pumps only .

@Ratho Reis,In years gone by, top producing real estate agents walked the neighborhood.

If the investment is not producing a positive cash flow, it is not an asset.

A couple of quick searches will produce you several.

Which thing would potentially produce the highest returns and be most readily available?

I have a couple of states in mind but not sure..Objective – Long TermIncrease my CASHFLOW and have enough real estate investments to earn over $10,000 a month in passive income in 10 years, over $120,000 a year, and to have over a $1,000,000 net worthObjective – Short TermAcquire 1 “multifamily” Income producing property and 1 primary residence.

Two hours away in the bigger town of the DFW area would of course produce more product, more sales, more opportunities, it would also produce more competition.
