Investor Underground Facebook group
Hello, I am a total newbie wanting to do my first house hack. I have great credit, some liquid and looking to find a deal towards the end of the year. I've started looking at sources for deals on duplexes and I ran across the INvestor Underground FB page. There is also an Above ground. Do you have any experience using these sites? Are they a could way to find properties? Or is it better to go with the MLS?

@Renee Burke Networking and staying in touch with the IU Facebook page is a good start. A lot of great advice and resources from people that have been investing in Austin for some time. There are some good wholesale deals if you aren't marketing to sellers yourself, so if you find people who put good deals up on those Facebook pages, definitely reach out to them.
