Rather than hire a property manager, you may want to hire someone just part time on hourly as an assistant to help handle mundane tasks.

If you have a deal under contract at 50% of the value, you should not have any trouble financing it with a hard money lender, even if you don't have any cash to contribute. 100% loan to cost financing is possible and available, but finding a deal with enough equity (especially in competitive Austin) is not an easy task!

I may also be a bit of a queen at multi-tasking and honestly while writing this I have sent out over 100 emails and taken two listing calls.

If you can find ways to streamline your processes, offload some tasks onto trusted team members, and work smarter, you will free up more time for rest and for some occasional fun.

The best of luck in your new adventure. 

I plan on starting in September as well as continue working counter terrorism in the metropolitan area, a joint task force.

It’s no small task to get this far.

This adventure is great, Tax Liens/Certificates may become something I'll starting investing more into, from what i see the rewards are awesome.

As Larry T. asked, other than reading, what steps have you taken so far?  

Additionally, office tasks like paying bills on time, keeping track of emails, returning phone calls, and following up on leads all require daily attention.
