I would identify a market based on your current capacity and begin to network online and here on BP to form a solid trustworthy team to help you get going. 

Engage in networking, social media, on line forums, associations, etc and showcase your expertise.3.

I don't get into pissing matches online. 

The only way to know it is to have someone experienced review it.The article must have been written long ago, before 2018, when this 2-yr rule existed.

Toledo's Lucas County Metropolitan Housing Authority...LMHA which administers the Section 8 program seems to have had a difficult 2016 and 2017 doesn't seem much better.I've been renting to Section 8 for seven years now, I still have my original tenant in fact, and normally I find great satisfaction in renting to good tenants and working with the bureaucracy that comes with a government program...I had 10 properties rented section 8 at one point and have slowly prioritized standard rentals over the program and now am seeing blatant issues with their operations causing me to move away from considering their tenants.Delays in the program: We used to have 5 business day's delay for new-tenant vouchers to be reviewed and processed for inspection but have been going weeks before we hear anything.

That is true for maybe 1 percent or less of the wholesalers who try it.When you are new and you ask for a wholesale mentor online, you are going to get every pitch, course, guru sell that there is.

Check online reviews and test their responsiveness.

If you have never done this as a full time business I will throw caution to the wind it is not as easy or as profitable as online forums make it out to be, and if you need money for living this probably is not going to sustain your lifestyle for the first several years. 

For instance, if the neighboring unit has a shut-in chain-smoker, or the house has railroad tracks behind it, it is definitely better to let a lead know and lose them than to not disclose, upset them and lose them (after they leave a nasty review).I'd agree with Jonathan that even late complaints need to be taken seriously, and barring some obvious malfeasance, I would just take the word of the resident and fix the issue.

Just make sure to have an inspection period to check out all the units, review leases, make sure tenants are paying (are leases month to month, when leases go through, everyone paying on time or are some behind, how long have they been living there/did they just moved in).
