I started buying rental properties when my husband was in the Army almost 30 years ago, so I can relate to what you are going through. :)

One of the best ways to find rental properties that I found is to approach existing landlords, especially if they are older and have owned the property for a while. Usually aging landlords of multi-family properties (2 to 4 units) are pretty responsive, and a lot of times I have found out that they are willing to finance for short term or work out other creative financing.

I suggest that you pace yourself when buying multi-family. 3-4 properties the first year, until you get the right team in place and also build up your cash resources.

Initially I purchased 16 multi-families in 18 months (back in 1991-92,) but it was stressful and not having the right workers and management in place, we had to do a lot ourselves, and my husband being in the Army ... it wasn't easy.

Recommendations and word of mouth are your best resources for contractors, etc. Attend REIA meetings and forum boards like BP. :)

Good luck!

 Can't wait to meet you! :)

@Lisa Maturo

May be because I am over 50 :), I do get a lot of "want-to-be" investors approaching me in their '50s and beyond. I have an investor that I am working with (and teaching) who started at 89 years of age.

Most the "late bloomers" as you call them have already had the discipline and the structure of a job and profession and are looking to transition to a different lifestyle. I find that younger investors are more assertive and looking for more immediate results (wholesaling and fix & flips,) while older investors are looking for more long term growth (buy and hold.)

A "late bloomer" who is looking into retirement has purchased 21 houses as rentals in 11 months just this past year (she will be teaching and training with me how she has done it starting in January via FB Live.) Another one has got into new development and because of her corporate-trained organization and planning skills, has raised over $2M for a new development.

I started investing when I was 23 years old, but I have noticed that now property owners do take me more seriously and with respect. 

@Matheus Bragatto

Wholesaling is definitely a great strategy to start out with when you are new to the business and wanting to get started.

I have an investor/student right now who is 17 years old. I was 23 years old when I started and I wanted to use real estate as a way to pay for my college (without getting students loans.)

These are the steps I suggest when getting into wholesaling:

1. Choose the right area - look for supply and demand and good activity of cash and investors sales.

2. Start building a buyers' list of ready and qualified buyers.

3. Locate properties from "don't wanters" - property owners who are not selling yet, but going through some type of distress.

4. Put the properties under contract - make sure you put a contingency on the contract that allows you to back out of the deal or renegotiate if you don't have a buyer within the time period that you have the contract with the seller.

5. Market to your buyers list and online.

6. Write a 2nd contract with your end buyer - make sure they put a substantial earnest money down and ask for a financial statement to make sure they will perform and close.

7. Close, Rinse and Repeat. :)

The steps are pretty straightforward. Just develop each step of the way and take your time to really build your system.
