I am currently in the efforts of paying off debt and getting into rental real estate to receive the cash flow so that I can stop working a W2 job and be able to live anywhere that I want to without worrying about a new job (remote or physical.)

With a little muscle you could physically run them off yourself (friends) before you take ownership with little risk to you.  

One in five women in this country have been verbally, physically or sexually assaulted.We learn from an early age to walk with our keys in our hands so we can quickly get in our cars or houses. 

The same is true of working for a GC (or becoming one), although your experience will obviously be more related to the physical aspects of the house. 

If, on the other hand, they have dumped multiple screws into it, or somehow managed to physically break the housing, there isn't much to break.

The commercial leasing and subleasing to start up your own business is a great way to get into a physical area. 

Thanks, Joe A lot of my BP clients just need someone who can go and physically get into the property.

An LLC or Corp is a whole new person in the eyes of the law, but the distinction is that it is not present PHYSICALLY.

We are in our early 40’s and would like to get rid of a mortgage sooner than later, and would also like to be able to either cut down hours at work, or allow my husband to retire early, as realistically it’s going to be very hard for him to physically work until he’s 70 when our current mortgage is paid off.

C1 - New PropertyC2 - No deferred maintenance, little or no physical depreciation & recent updatesC3 - Well Maintained, with normal wear and tear and, perhaps, some updatesC4 - Minor deferred maintenance requiring only minimal repairsC5 - In need of significant repairsC6 - Substantial damages or significant need of major repairsAs you can see the differences between the condition of a property between a C1 and C4 is minimal between each Rating, but between C4 and C5 there is a HUGE difference.
