@Jerel EhlertI was wondering if you could help me regarding the miscommunication on the wholesale process in TX.

@Miki SheinaizenI recommend finding local meetups to attend. https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521I have found all of my best connections at local meetups.For your BRRRR strategy, partnering with a local property manager and connecting with contractors early on can help streamline your rehab process, especially if you’re not local.

An agent will significantly help you through the offer process.

I'm not sure how fast you want to scale, but I see that as a feasible alternative if you don't want to go through the process of either BRRRing or the fix and flip. 

It went through this process myself and found that it was much easier for me to start my investing career after.

@Ricky Hernandez As a Realtor with extensive experience, I typically guide buyers through the process.

It enables me to market properties effectively while also managing application screenings, processing monthly payments, and accepting maintenance work orders.

Perform the same task in each app to ensure a fair comparison.Load a property with pictures and details.Market that property.See what your marketing looks like from the public's perspective.Submit a fake application to see how easy the process is.Run a credit/screening report on yourself.Enter a maintenance request, assign a vendor, and attach a fake invoice.Enter charges to the tenant's ledger.Enter recurring charges and automatic late fees.Sign documents electronically.Run owner reports.After testing a few apps, one should clearly stand out.

TIA For organizing and saving receipts, there are several phone apps and software options that can help streamline the process.

They’re a great way to learn the entire process of property investment, from acquisition to management, and provide a solid foundation for scaling your portfolio down the line.
