Every now and then you will find a diamond in the rough! 

Over time, "The Big Stage" has changed from the baseball diamond, to big college presentations, to running a semi-successful luggage business, etc.

There's a story about a man who travels the world searching for diamonds and spends his entire family fortune following leads to far distant lands that are supposedly bursting with wealth. 

I’m using the data to do my own investing, but don’t have the capital to invest in every “diamond” property that I find.

It sounds like you have a pretty good foundation to start with and I'd be happy to connect as you said.If your main goal is to connect with others right now then I'd also recommend attending local real estate groups such as Black Diamond REI in Burlington and Worcester, or the RI real estate investors group in RI.

Not much in LoCo, but you can find a diamond in the rough here and there.

Finding that in Nashville now is like finding a diamond.

Gold Silver Diamonds Ruby's  or even Iron, Copper, Lithium etc..  

This could be an opportunity to purchase a diamond in the rough if you are willing and able to turn the business around.Don’t be snarky nor apologetic, but write an honest offer based on the information you received.

I'm hoping inspection goes well and this is a diamond in the rough.
