Also wondering if I can get a second loan (Commerical) looking to go bigger with a 5+ unit building using the 75% of profit from first one. 

So far, It's showing a$175,000 3-bed, 1-bath, 1,659 sq ft and 3,920 sq ft (lot) on a street that's only 4 blocks west of my block.

Columbus has become a major tech hub in the midwest with large companies like Intel investing $20 billion, Amazon investing $3.5 billion, Google building 2 new data centers: one in downtown Columbus and the other in right outside of U.S. 33 in Lancaster.

It can bring in steady cash, help you build wealth, and mix up your investments.

Hi there, I am a new real estate investor, living in Los Angeles, with access to the capital needed to build a real estate business.

And lastly, still to be decided, but build a portfolio of rentals.

On a new build I would be able to do some of the work post framing.

Other than that work through it as fast as you can, it will build a foundation for you to use in the Real World of real estate.

I think you are on the right track however its going to be necessary for you to have some "skin in the game" sooner rather than later - while it can be appealing and seemingly possible to build a significant real estate portfolio with all of "OPM" the reality is you are probably going to need to have some equity in these properties - 20% or so down from your own funds to keep building. 

They may even work with FA's or CFP's to build the team you need for this transition of retirement assets.
