I was able to quit my job & we are now packing & moving to Texas in about a month.I buy, sell, fix/flip, sandwich loans, whatever needs to be done to help a homeowner out of a messy situation while still making enough profit to ensure I get to go out and do it again.I like wholesaling most, simply because you keep your hands cleaner, & its less stress.

I've heard everything from "kitchens and bathrooms sell houses" to people who swear by always replacing or at least servicing these items just to ensure that they don't have any problems during inspection.

You would service the loan or ensure a servicing company maintains it properly, and distribute the payments.
