Would like some comments on my idea, is it a good idea or otherwise.
Will be out of our business in a few months time and I am considering what to do next.
I have been thinking about buying a property and renovating it and then reselling it and basically doing this as my job for a while. My wife will provide me with some assistance but will also be utilising her long service leave.
To do this it means that we would have to live on the proceeds from our business sale and the sale of another property as well until the renovation was completed and the property resold. Would also have to use proceeds from sales for renovation and holding costs.
Maybe there is someone out there that would like to be my mentor through this process.
I have worked for myself for many years and am looking for all options to keep myself busy and keep earning money without having to go and work for someone else. We have become a little to used to doing what we want when we want without having to ask or tell others. We both work hard and long hours so it is not a case of being lazy just a lifestyle choice.
I have many years of work left in me yet and have plenty of skills and qualifications to get a job working for someone, just not my first choice.
Buying another business in town is an option but choices a limited.
Have plenty of skills to do the renovation as have renovated 1 investment property and 3 houses that we have lived. One is current PPOR one is another investment property and one is being sold.
Any comments good, bad or otherwise appreciated.
Thanks
