I’ve been learning about the industry / different regional markets for the past few years and am eager to execute my first deal in the near term and continue growing through this community.My primary goal is to purchase a property I can live in while generating rental income (e.g., a single-family home with a tiny house, a duplex, or a single-family property where I can install a tiny house).

Too many in your shoes focus all of their time and energy on preparing for the liability event and fail to address the items in their day to day business that can actually prevent liability exposure.

Batchleads' response was to suggest lying about the industry to get the campaign accepted, which we obviously did not do and strongly advise against if you wish to avoid getting sued.My current marketing channels are outsourced cold calling and PPC.I know that this answer does not help since you're looking for lead generation advice, but SMS marketing for follow up (leads you've already spoken to) are getting through with my clients. 

Wholesaling is a smart move to build connections, generate cash, and learn the market.

Commercial properties can generate higher rental income but come with higher vacancy risks and management needs.

Good news is its fully rented and generates enough cash to satisfy a 14% HML (give or take), that's pretty robust. 

All the machines will run on a diesel generator which is included in the $17’000 for the production line.

I highly second @Kwame Amoako and recommend starting with a off market direct to seller campaign to generate some leads. 

Good evening, I’m a 3rd generation builder and developer in the central Al area.

No property purchased with a $60K down payment will generate $1,000 per month in cash flow, unless you hit an absolute home run.
