Hey y’all- I currently own a bookkeeping firm (which consists of just me) that is netting me a couple hundred thousand a year. I’m also a realtor and will do about $70k this year with that business.

I’m considering buying some sort of franchise or service based business like a flooring company (because of the real estate contacts I now have). Obviously I don’t know anything about these businesses but I feel like I could learn and expand pretty quickly. I just really feel like business ownership in some sort of trade is the way to go in order to expand my “portfolio”.

Am I crazy?

    You’re crazy.

    Again… terrible idea.

      I apologize I should have been more specific. I have no intention of getting rid of the bookkeeping or real estate business. I am considering buying the flooring business that already has sales and management/installation subcontractors in place.
