@Marc Rodriguez where in South Florida are you looking to buy? 

People consider Tampa Bay South Florida all the way to Miami Dade county.

No area is off limits but the closer to my area (Broward) is ideal.

South Florida is expensive and as a rookie it can be intimidating (but not impossible) to reach out to owners to find an off market deal. I was in your shoes a few months ago. I ended up investing out of state. I realize now you don’t have to go to that extent. Orlando, Tampa, West palm beach and Jacksonville have plenty of properties in your price range. Just do some market research to find an area you like and then use an investor friendly realtor to help you spot a property that meets your criteria. They sometimes can find off market deals for you. 

Interesting.  How did you find your contractor for the out of area/state investments you have done? Did you rely on word of mouth from your investor friendly realtor?

Sorry! Looking at single family and  quadplex or under.  

Hello all,

Been reading up a lot on BRRRRing for the last 6-12 months and trying to get my feet wet with my first investment. Living in South Florida, the market is very high and I was looking for a property I could be all in for under 200K due to my financial restrictions. I haven't seen anything remotely close to that as SoFla is so high. A few questions for you: 

1) What source have you had your best luck finding properties? (Invrstment realtor, partnering with wholesalers, redfin/realtor/apps, etc.)

2) Advise/suggestions on where to look for a SoFla rookie... West coast FL? Out of state?

Thank you!
