You could test the waters with one or two rehabs, see how they perform, and then decide if a full transition makes sense.Leverage Your Skills:With your contracting experience, you can save significantly on rehab costs and add value quickly, which might give you a better return on investment compared to the time and effort spent growing the IT business further.Final Thoughts:Ultimately, it might come down to where your passion lies.

I am looking to make my first step into real estate investing in a year two by building a new duplex in the Lehigh acres area of Florida.

I have been doing all my investing in the Cleveland markets for many years, 100s and 100s and 100s of deals.

Real Estate “Enhanced ROI” TechniquesSummary of advanced techniques used in real estate transactions to enhance return on investment, yield and velocity of capital resulting in greater wealth1.

All other factors (applicable documentation, terms/interest rates, title, requirements) seem to usually be about the same.

Again, this is very much a lesson learned from C-class investing in old urban properties in the Rust Belt. 

For me, I'm focusing my investing right now on doors.

Original price is 375k and I'm getting it for around 310k.Would appreciate any help here as I am investing out of state, though will be house hacking and living in the home for a bit.

Spoke with a guy who has invested in Real Estate for 30 years and is looking to sell some of his investments at the end of this year or beginning of next year. 

Congrats, what are your real estate investment goals?
