Have some capital - where do I start?

Hi have been lurking for a while but really need to step up my game. I live in Renton and am looking for deals 2 hours North or South of that area. Interested in SFR/MFR for buy and hold or flip with about $100,000 capital. I want to put as little of my own money down as possible and start acquiring some property for my portfolio but have been running numbers based on the inventory from MLS and nothing calculates out (used BRRRR and rental calculators). I checked Tacoma, Auburn, Kent, Renton, Olympia, etc.

What are your recommendations? Can you introduce me to local networks/meetings where I can find deals before it hits the MLS? Even willing to partner with someone to gain more knowledge.

I have a full time job that is pretty intense so trying to do this on the side is a little overwhelming but I just love talking real estate!

Tiffany Tran as a high paid professional I would recommend investing passively for cashflow. This is not whole selling or flipping houses. You left highest and best use is at your day job. Sorry... it’s not very fun but safe and what I did.
