Hi everyone,

I've been browsing around the Bigger Pockets forum for a few months but just registered a couple weeks ago. A few years ago I talked with someone who owned more than 50 rental properties and occasionally flipped property and I've been thinking doing RE investing ever since. My wife and I are finally near being a position where we will have the capital to comfortably start.

I plan on looking for homes well below market value that I can easily clean up, fix up and either sell or rent, depending on what the market value might be after I'm done with basic fix ups. I've been looking at whats available for the past year or so but plan on looking to purchase my first property sometime in the July to Septermbet timeframe.

Although I've found a couple, I'm having a difficult time finding properties that are in decent condition at an asking price. What are you guys doing to find these properties? Does anyone live in the area that has had any luck?

Thanks for the help, both now and with what I've seen in the past.

Regards,
Joe
