@Kyle TrotmanI would suggest speaking to local banks, and credit unions.

Has good job at a local factory & recently started school to become a welder. 

I’ve invested locally in SFH.

And, with other strategies 50:1, 100:1, 10,000:1 is all realistic. 4th and final: Tax advantages left right and center in real estate.

its genius really.. most bird dogs work for locals on a performance basis and don't have to pay the investor to bring them deals.. 

Finally, double-check local demand and rent trends in the area to ensure the pro forma income is achievable.I’ve worked on several mobile home park deals as a broker and am currently helping a few clients sell their parks, so I know how important it is to ensure the numbers make sense both now and in the long term.

I believe that you don't get returns (failed to deliver) with bulk mailers so you don't know which addresses are bad.That's the simple stuff.My advice is to do various mailings that you or some prepares locally, that go out immediately, using 1st class postage.

Please do this first:  contact the local Housing Authority office in your market area and obtain the landlord package.

I would encourage you to find local REI meet-ups in your area.

I found MLS data outside the are and got data from local property managers.
