Can't find a great multi-family or SF Home to save my life

[Randal Remon]

Hi everyone. I went from being in a slump, to actually getting up, and taking action recently. For the last 2 weeks, I have either been checking out properties, reading, or listening to audiobooks, trying to give it my all, but it seems like I'm back at square one. 

My attempts and actions have been horrendous. It seems like I'm further than ever to finding my first multi-family or even SF property around or near my area. Most of the homes I find are either by whole sellers who barely know about the property and seem like they are in it to make a quick buck, or by other investors who sell homes that actually need to be moved, or just rummaged old homes that will take a complete rehab (which I dont mind, but honestly, the homes I've seen look like you almost want to tear them done and start from scratch).

Any advice? I'm kind of at a stand still cause I dont know if I need to find bigger properties, and team up with a investor that could provide more capital, or maybe I'm missing something? Any advice would be appreciated!
