@Jimmy Rojas

congratulations for getting in the game and trying to put deals together.

remember, what makes a good deal is not how much, but the equity in the deal.  i know you know that, and i know you make have limited funds that prevent you from being able to look for bigger deals.

but, one thing you must also understand is that doing basic searches the way you are doing in the MLS will not get you a great deal.

99% of good deals never hit the MLS, and if something slips through it get taken within minutes. so by the time you are seeing the properties all the top investors have already seen them, vetted, and passed.

seriously consider setting up a marketing engine that goes to owners directly.
