Hey Christopher,

First welcome to BP. 

As I am sure you know, there are a bunch of people from all over that can help with networking and pass along contacts. Probably the first thing to do though is find a property. That is the hard part. The really good deals are never going to make it to the MLS. You will find them from having breakfast at one of the local diners or coffee shops. Talk with waiters, waitresses, other locals who might know of someone who NEEDS to get out of their home. THAT is where you will find a deal.

Once you get something under contract you have 20 or 30 days to close. During that time you will call a few contractors to give you prices and talk over repairs with them. Since you are handyman, you will probably be able to do most of the work anyway. I know that a bunch of people tell you to BUILD YOUR NETWORK, but really you should be out networking with other investors and tracking down leads to potential deals. It is really a numbers game, when you go and actually talk with enough distressed owners you will find one who wants to sell at your price.

Spend your time trying to find a deal directly from a seller and the rest will fall into place.

Good luck and if you need some help, call, text or email me.
