Houston Market for New Investors

[Rani Ismail]

Hi everyone!

Thanks to BiggerPockets I started getting involved in Real Estate less than a year ago. I have a couple of flips under my belt but all my deals have been through the big wholesalers in our metro (Networth Reality, Myers, New Western). A lot of their lower-priced properties are good for rental plays and a lot of the higher-priced properties out of my reach (finance and experience wise), that's not to mention the prefered treatment their accredited investors get. 

So my current problem is the waiting time I have before I can find a good deal. I have been wanting to take ACTION for a couple of weeks but have been frustrated with my lack of options. I have checked online websites like myhousedeals.com and such but a lot of the numbers are inaccurate or inflated.

I know it takes time to be accredited, and so I am looking to expand the list of options as to give myself a better chance of finding a deal in my current finance range. Any advice on how I might do that would be appreciated.

Thank ya'll!
