So after looking at lifestyles and goals of some people I admire I have made a goal to read more about real estate.Being in the commercial development industry, there are a ton of information and materials out there.

I suspect that--generally speaking--tenants looking to live in a SFH/row home will be a bit more on the stable lifestyle spectrum than those living in apartments.

So I’m adjusting my lifestyle to work toward FI as well.Love this site and eager to learn.

After my recent change in my lifestyle however, I've understood that I desire to get back to the US and continue to change my life.

the other place were I have seen fortunes made in real estate is in Timber and in path of progress farmer bought the dirt outside of town town expands  DR Horton pays 10 mil for their farm..I see those.. but someone who is staking rentals with only 20 or 25% equity and making a 100 a month or 200 month.. while I have clients that do well. make 20 to 30k a month and live a nice lifestyle .. they are not in the same league and they work their but off for it.

I want to have a PLAN and know what I'm going to do so that I can have a comfortable lifestyle as soon as possible.

We both work full time jobs that more than pay for our lifestyles, so that is totally doable.

I took the pre license exam and then the test right after my 18th birthday.. flunked first time you were allowed to take it two weeks later in those days passed that time :)  served me well all these years.. not without its ups and downs.. and to me its not work its a lifestyle..

I just realized a friend had invited me to the annual Lifestyles event downtown. 

Decide if your lifestyle allows you fulfill the responsibilities of landlord, and then compare the ROI of keeping the condo vs. a different investment vehicle.Good Luck!
