Having traveled in the Blackstone VA and surrounding areas it seams like traveling the coast would be fun.

My goal is to utilize real estate investing to replace our current income and allow us greater freedom to set our own schedules, travel, spend time together. 

Smoking offer - that's awesome! 

I just started traveling with my job, but would like to continue to invest in properties.

Also remember if you're retired you have more time on your hands which usually means you're spending more on entertainment/travel/toys.

Your market has been smoking hot down there for several years.   

Were the presenters correct or were they just blowing smoke in my direction.

I have always had steady income just from different companies and places as I was traveling from New Jersey and West Virginia University alot for school.

If you need a reputable inspector I can recommend one to you that will travel to MD.I would also agree that anyone you bring in to pay for services should be brought in on a short term, per project basis.

Just right now my issue is which way  should I approach real estate, coming with a well though plan and not having someone watch over me.My Big "WHY"Have multiple high positive income stream, so I can be financially free and I can have more time time to see family/friends, find the things i enjoy, travel around the world and make a difference in this world.Thank you for your time for reading this post and getting to know me.
