Going to random real estate seminars likely won't do much.Different asset classes can require various amounts of capital to really get going.

Rather than waste time with random properties, I've learned it is beneficial for both parties to take the time to really learn what an investor wants to buy, then go find it for them.

The numbers that I put in there about the auction vs private sale price were just random guesses.

House listings that have aerial photographs sell 68% faster than properties with standard images. 

You can easily do this on airbnb by selecting duplicate this listing, the reasons are for A-B testing, you can try out different images, pricing, listing description ect ect and see which one does better. 

It’s avtually kinda comical to me now .Most of my tenants just have an old mattress laying on the floor and nothing of real value besides a cheap flatscreen tv and random junk .

To start looking and analysing the figures for at least 1 random property for rental in my local area per day from 1st May onwards.

So if I have a 10 unit that's split into two 5 unit sides, I'd let someone rent all of 1 building but not random units in each. 

And since rent increases ultimately must come from inflation adjusted income increases, bodes well there too.Never been to Texas, that's just random 'big data' data point from an internet stranger.

You will be underestimated and misjudged, but you have the opportunity to completely blow that image out of the water with your knowledge and passion for what you do.
