He directed me to solo 401K if I can generate self employment income through my Real Estate LLC, IRA checkbook is the next best thing if you are just a passive investor.

Also, I found that adding the "length of residence" filter on List Source will generate more motivated leads.

This was the best timing, and i just couldn’t believe that if you put the time (MONTHS AND YEARS) and energy (mentality and focus) you can truly do whatever your minds sets you.

Signs, marketing, lead generation, etc. cost money.

I started off by looking in my neighborhood as a means of generating my own farm area.

I've been doing rentals for years and I want to save my time and energy.

1) Current home (to convert to rental)Bought for $245K a few years back, monthly PITI of ~$2,000 per month (3.125% rate 15-year mortgage with 20% down)Can fetch fair market rent of ~$2,000 per month once we move out and put on rental market; with some vacancies and maintenace built in probably more like $1,500 per month in net rental income per monthGreat neighborhood in NW Houston suburbs with lots of nearby commercial/retail development as well as excellent 10/10/9 schools, so good price appreciation potential2) Target purchase home (to move family into)Looking to buy ~$175K home, much smaller square footage, with monthly PITI of ~$1,300 per month (assuming 4% rate 30-year mortgage with 20% down)Probably will buy in same neighborhood given great schools and retail developmentEssentially, I would gain $1,500 per month of rental income from the old house and assume an incremental $1,300 per month in PITI from the new house, so this would seem to help me generate some income

Much of my generation (I’m in my mid-40s) and younger generations don’t have the skill set to do common repairs or remodeling so they have to pay labor costs for every repair or update.Those who realize they don’t have the knowledge, skills or desire to maintain or renovate a house are renting.Renting makes sense for an ever increasing portion of the population.

There are much simpler ways to generate leads. 

Payton,First off.. commercial property is priced according to it's income generating potential.
