Looking for multi-family units

I’m in Houston, Texas and I want to start out in a multi-family unit but for some reason it’s been hard for me to find some and let alone for a decent price range. Any suggestions?

For a beginner there are four primary options:

* loopnet
* MLS

* real estate investment clubs 
* Generate your own leads by calling owners (very difficult)


the best source is brokers who make calls to owners and bring you deals but it’s hard to get those deals unless you have a track record
