Really id like to get my foot in the door with something pretty soon but i dont think before January is possible for me rn.

It’s easy to approach networking with a “what’s in it for me” mindset, but I found that the most valuable connections came from a genuine interest in building mutual trust and respect.

It was written before the days of YouTube, so it's not full of the common nonsense where authors sell a course, send you to their website for downloads, or write a follow-up with additional "secrets" they forgot to put in the first book.Long-Distance Real Estate Investing by David Greene was another good one.

You can spend as little as $100 to form an LLC, or you could use an attorney and spend $1,000 or more.

One thing that's worked really well for me is looking through county deed records of the addresses that the LLC's are being housed under.I'd say 50% of the time the LLC address leads to a residential property, that I can then skip trace. 

I did a quick google search yesterday trying to find one in my area and got a lot of corporate type responses eg fill out this form and check the website etc.

Here are a few additional ideas that have worked for me and others in competitive markets like Austin:Off-Market Leads from Contractors: I had a friend who rehabbed a house in North Austin last year.

I know the IRS asks about entity vs personal members and if they're foreign or not specifically on the 1065 and other tax forms. 

And boom you buy a lot for the price of a single lot and with some simple forms to the city you get to re establish the old lots..

People seem to buy mainly for appreciation, but I'm not sold appreciation will continue to rise the way it has the past 5 - 6 years, so feel like CF is the safer investing avenue for me.
