. - I asked for 3 months' bank statements and have about 20k liquid- 16 derogatory remarks on credit report- (I feel dumb for even asking considering this)Here is the kicker:- they own a restaurant and already said "How would you feel if there were occasional workers that stayed here?"

Please feel free to inbox me with contacts ThanksRicardo

It still wouldn't be enough profit to do this full time without another job.I see lots of people online who have quit their full time job and are doing Real Estate Investing only, buying new cars, being able to travel and I am wondering if this is just their "online persona", it is because of the amount of properties they have that has given them this financial/work free freedom or I need to find somewhere else that would give me a larger return.Either way I am still moving forward on my journey :) I was just curious because that would be my dream goal to not have a 9-5 and my investments give me that freedom.

Feel free to email me at [email protected] and I can help you out.That said, spreadsheets go really far.

As you said it will free up some of your time and will help accelerate your business.

This seems especially prudent in an era marked by rising interest rates, a departure from the previously free access to capital.Real estate, inherently, isn't known for its rapid fluctuations; it generally stabile.

I have a decent amount of reserves and I feel like I need to make the jump and get started. 

I’m definitely not looking to house hack, and not sure how I feel about flipping yet since I’m not that experienced.

If you need help running numbers to determine the return of both options, or simply chat further feel free to reach out.
