Disheartened in Starting Out

After years of work to pay off all my debt (other than my mortgage), improve my credit score, and doing a  cash out refi my house to get seed money, I am BEYOND ready to get to investing.  I've been in discussion with lenders and I'm pre-qualified.  I have a great real estate agent.  So now all I need is the right deal! 

I hear on here that a lot of people research and prep but never make the jump, and I also hear you have to make sure the numbers are right.  Well I'm definitely ready to jump, but there is just nothing on the market in my price range for me to jump on!  I've been analyzing constantly, probably every house on the market in my price range.  I feel so frustrated.  I worry that I'm going to have to wait and wait and wait until a good deal comes on the market and I don't want to wait, I'm ready to go now!  I want to get started!!!

Anyone else experience this?  

Le sigh.

If you can't find anything in the market you are analyzing, you're in the wrong market.  Find a different one.
