hi 

sorry about your rough patch! you have done the right thing.

1. reached out for help.

2. listed your issues

hopefully by writing them down, you may have realized their priority in your life.

look over your list and see which are things out of your control, and which are things you have power over the out come.

focus on the things you can change.

the car is out of your control, its done. there is little you can do except accept the fact you are carless temporarily. it is temporarily.

the housing market is out of your control. but you can look back at why it fell through and learn from it. is there something about the house you need to do or disclose for a smoother close? do you need to vet the buyer, get financing knocked out prior to acceptance. an ouch of prevention is worth a pound of cure

technology is something you can control. if you change your perspective of I can't do tech to I want to learn, maybe it may make difference. decide if you want to learn it or give it to a third party. this is something that is within your power to change. also see how important is this in your list of problems. 

spiritual faith is also under your control. take a breather and do what you need to reconnect. its very important to take a break and breathe 

hope this helps, we all have been here before

i second what @Wade Sikkink said ;)

as a investor friendly Realtor, my job is to figure out which one of those three my client is looking for. and for the same client it may be all three depending on location.

for myself its all three too depending on location and type of Real estate. 

But buying right is key and more important then "profit". Having multiple exit strategies is also up there in my priorities before profit

find a local reia (real estate investor group)

and start talking to ppl.

maybe they need an assistant ;)

Interview them all and find one that suits your own BUSINESS PHILOSOPHY!

I just moved from a no no no, to a yes yes yes company! everything I do I had to fight for killed my business! since you mention KW, I am in KW now and happy

@Daniel Lupoli

I was looking at NJ condo just recently to invest, we at Pittsburgh are a different market ;p

I quickly come back to Pittsburgh and bought here.  I was looking in Fort Lee to Jersey City.  I just couldn't make the rent numbers make sense with the condo fee, and parking issues in NJ.  and the insane taxes ;p

Pittsburgh has a few university and medical hospitals in the city so you have a varied choice of investment, from Student, low income, to professional. 

I prefer the latter ;p  I like my Grade A, lower and safer returns.

I have clients and friends that prefer the higher but riskier returns of low income and student housing rental.

I also flip in the GRADE A area, but I don't do it often because my heart is in multiunits and commercial now.  The flip is too much headache for too little reward

Good Luck!
