It has about $30K in gross equity putting me at about 77% LTV on my FHA. 

As I was making progress, the time I was putting towards my RE endeavor became dearer than my hourly job rate - so I asked for a raise knowing it'll be better off for them to keep me at the company yet I was prepared to be fired.Bottom line, it really depends on the culture of your company and the people you're working with; I got referrals, referred peers to my realtor, got a (60%) raise, and even a request for a future JV.

Dallas ( I don't know this area) is red hot and has been to sell to cash flow investors.

You can sell it to me at an 8 cap then :) I either think you should list it and see what you getorMaybe its time you raised the rent. 

You lost me at "economic loss"Philly is huge and radically diverse in rental costs.

So how do I get into that and then it hits me, If I get any job that pays me at least $10 an hour in addition with my current job I should, if the planets aline the card play out and the fates agree, be able to pay my loans off in five years and still have a little left over maybe enough for a $10,000 house or two. not much I know but if I get a job at say a hardware job to boot well not only will I have that money but I will get a discount to buy the tools I need to flip houses and relearn some of those skills that I need to do it.
