Trying to find first property and buy with first time home buyer loan

[Branson Hodgin]

I recently got approved for a conventional first time home buyer loan through a bank with 0% down and on an ARM for five years. I obviously have to live in the property to use this loan and I plan to renovate it for a year and then sell/rent depending on the market. The problem is I am having trouble finding a good investment property near where I work and I am not sure who to connect with for an off market deal. I have been scouring the MLS but it does not have good deals. I live in the Asheboro, NC area and need help finding a good deal.
