As Colin noted above it is hard to compete with the large players in the field.Where we found a better bang for our buck was getting on more channels like Marriott, Booking.com, and about 20 others. 

Contraction: Emphasize cash-flowing properties, distressed sales, and securing deals below market value.

You absolutely need to get copies of all the leases, AND, before closing I definitely suggest you get estoppel agreements signed by the tenants verify their current rent, security deposits, and any other important terms.

We negotiated a favorable deal by assessing the needed renovations and offering $60,000 to secure it quickly.

I’m looking forward to starting this journey and securing financial freedom for my family for years to come! 

Every year off season I get a baseball player to comes to stay to be close to his son.

Personal loan secured by the property: Same deal, no verbiage that I see making it appear that this is personally guaranteed3.

My plan is to read about 10 books on the subject and engage with others in the real estate community over the next six months, all while working on building a strong credit score to secure my first loan.In the meantime, I’d love to hear your advice!

The PM is still responsible for giving you any monies owed from rent and/or security deposits.

The main players in this space are Guidance Residential and UIF, but it turns out that they may just be purchasing a Freddie/Fannie loan on the back end to finance the deal and then structure it differently for the buyer - which isn't in accordance with their religious rules.
