I am not a fan of micromanagement, and the board has become quite antagonistic and prejudice.

I love what i do and its a big passion of mine I just would love to do it on my terms not because I need the income.INSERT REAL ESTATE INVESTINGI have ZERO houses under contract or have not spoken with my first home owner.

I hope Foremost is awesome for you, but just had to get a plug in for Proper, 'cause I'm a fan :) 

I can resonate with your passion to spend more time with family, as I too have a young and growing family.

I'm a big fan of going after the low-hanging future, and while it's still possible to flip foreclosures (I've done a couple of them in the past two years), in my markets, there are easier ways to find deals these days.

If you have any equity built in a primary residence, you may be able to secure a HELOC, then obtain a mortgage at a lower interest rate to pay off the HELOC payments.Also, I'm not a big fan of estate sales. 

Decided to shift gears this year and dive back into real estate because I realized its my true passion and true path to financial independence ( Right now, Im involved with new construction/development of MF units in Los Angeles ).I guess my point is...

Tech has never really been my passion but, I adore sales, selling and generally seeing a business/operation grow.

The OP is pissing into a fan.
