If what you want to do is just buy investment properties (and not live in them), you're going to have  a tough road ahead.

@Kyle Wahl Always tough to make recommendations without all of the details, but I’ll make assumptions... as mentioned, if you can pay off the credit card debt the return far exceeds any buy and hold I’ve found.

This sounds great, at least I thought it was, but I was not ready to be a teacher, a dad, a worker, a landlord, a cook, and an investor all at the same time.

Esp notice March when the virus issues started and we were able to shift/adjust to helping essential workers and still generate income. 

Tough to get any form of financing & sometimes just as tough to get insurance on the ones we have since made a LOT of money on.

There's just too many heating pipes, sidings, fire-resistant ceilings in boiler rooms, and others that means its tough to avoid.Here in Vermont, if we suspect asbestos exists we just need to make sure it is contained. 

The RV component is tough.

Yes, it would be nice to have access to their estimates, but if they're not there or they're not valid such as in this case, then you need to be able to do your own comps or get someone who can help you with that.If you don't know the rents or condition or anything else, then you're going to be in a tough position to have an offer in hand. 

I think commercial real estate is in for a tough time the next few years.

I rent right now a townhouse (2 teen kids) which is again we all know the rent is insane.A few avenues I am looking into is house hacking to start (almost the only way to do it if you are on Long Island and even then it can be tough), remote investing (after I make solid connections), and entertaining other options like the following:I notice as I search more and more locally, there are lots of multi-family fixer-uppers in C areas half the price of the surrounding properties that could provide decent income (if rent is paid and not vacant).For example, property is 150K - all homes around it are 300K.
