Besides Zillow and similar websites, where should I look for leads?

I want to do a bank statement loan(I'm an independent contractor)with just me on the new loan in Texas .

Hi Gege, I would recommend listening to some of the podcasts from BiggerPockets, they really help a lot when you are getting started.

What paperwork should I keep a paper trail of to make things like taxes and other situations better/easier for myself?

We plan to set-up an LLC, is that the correct approach?

As I learn both options.

I have been considering asking to buy the single family in cash to separate the deal but would like that amount to be subtracted from the purchase price while keeping the cash I would spend on the down payment the same to include the single family that way the seller gets the same amount of cash upfront.

I am looking at alternatives.Remember @Aaron Washington, and LLC provides some protection from contract suits, but not negligence.

I found a property on an auction site that I'd like to bid on.

For example, California has an $800 minimum franchise tax, while other states have lower fees or no franchise tax at all.
