Starting Real Estate Portfolio

[Mikey Bentivegna]

Hello, my name is Mikey and I'm from York, PA. Im 18 years old and have saved up enough for my first rental. My problem is I don't know where I should be looking to find deals. Does anyone have any recommendations on where I should be looking to find deals. I have reached out to a couple real estate bankruptcy attorneys to try to find a good deal but have not have any luck. I have just been investing in my intelligence and trying to find different ways to get good leads. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I definitely agree with the above recommendation to connect with an investor friendly agent. They will be a great source of deals. You can also reach out to wholesalers and other investors who can help as well. If you want to look for yourself, you can check Zillow, Redfin and LoopNet. Not all deals reach those websites, so it won't be perfect, but it's still great to look.

It also helps if you really narrow down what you're looking for. The more specific you can be, the more people (agents, wholesalers, other investors) can help.
