I have a question about getting started...

[Robert Ian Oldroyd]

As a newbie wanting to House Hack, I don't understand how I'm supposed to compete with all the experienced investors in my area. I live in a big town and there are only 150 or so multi-family properties on the market at any given time. I guess Im just assuming that if its an actual deal, an experienced investor will spot it way before me and buy it. How do I get around this?
