Trusting others and handing off work.

Everything else was "hand holding", consulting, education, and mentoring.

I’ve bought 10 buy n hold SFR in the last year that cash flow.

I invest in fix n flip and buy & hold in NE Jackson.Any where between wholefoods and the Starbucks on county line rd you can’t go wrong.

You have the deed and hold title with complete ownership like a normal condo. 

They are much like an HOA where they often aren't working towards the same objective you are.Renting, like you said, is just throwing away your money usually.I think I would consider the hold-time for your investment.  

As for your down payment, I can’t personally speak to a small business loan…you would just want to ensure you include those payments in your analysis and prepare to be repaying the small business loan and other holding costs during the flip. 

I have been a nurse my entire career, So Real Estate is very new to me, I have been reading books, and listening to podcasts and trying to learn all I can, but have no hands on experience, Im a little lost but I'm hoping with the Bigger Pockets Community and their expertise I will find my footing.

On one hand I don't know what reviews are factual. 

I believe from what I have learned about REI thus far, buy and hold real estate is the way to do that.
