Someone retired can live very comfortably off of that.Someone in their 20's trying to quit their job and go real estate full time is generally willing to take on massive headache properties for perceived higher yields to try to build up ongoing cash flow so that they can sustain themselves and break free from the rat race.    

I've been really getting excited about real estate lately and just need to find something within my comfort zone.

Also don't ever pay for the "lists" when they are public information you can get from the comfort of your couch.

Ask the agent if that's something they feel comfortable performing for you or not?  

He is able to fix almost any part of a mobile home so I feel very comfortable investing with him as the home would be the collateral. 

It's really a matter of meeting someone you'd feel comfortable working with.

I have a question for all the experts out there.If you were to start from scratch entering into REI and your goal was to have enough money or passive income to travel comfortably all over the world whenever you wanted, what would the process be from A to Z?

Find one that you are comfortable with. 

I did this with a small 2 BR house in Glendale, then larger 3 BR houses in Antelope Valley, and then once I had grown my portfolio, I could comfortably afford to move to a 4 BR house in Huntington Beach.

At that time I felt more comfort from the construction business Eventhough I had a business degree that emphasized real estate, I got into the construction business where I had been since I was 17.
