Jay, I'm in virtually the same situation as you, here in Phoenix.

If you have a little extra cash you can always set up a VA (virtual assistant) to handle many small tasks that are involved in sifting through the rubble to find a great deal.  

I was going through this old thread and a wholesaler noted that she sells at her contract price with no markup, but a 50% profit share. https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/93/topics/174983-virtual-wholesaling?

I go virtually line by line.  

The vast majority have a very high scenes of entitlement having lived their life off of free handouts and for that reason have zero respect for others.As a landlord the level of resentment your tenants will have for you will counter any training you attempt to achieve.C class tenants are like cats, virtually impossible to train, and must be constantly monitored as you would a child.

Questions for your Property Manager.1)  Are the pictures professional - Take a look... if they are not shot with a 35 mm, edited and virtually staged... they didn't put a lot of effort in.

After the account is set up and funded account owner can use it to invest into virtually anything, including private lending, rentals, etc. 

Also, new agents: when registering your domain, use CallRail to create a virtual number for your Whois data.
