I recommend you attend a free product demo webinar so you can see if it's right for you.

TLDR: I found a seller who is open to a financing an off-market 5 unit multi family home near a major hospital in Denver.

A city like Houston  isn't $1MM+ in above average areas, like a city like Denver is simply cause of prop tax but you then got higher PI&I.  

I'd suggest starting by joining your local Real Estate Investor Association and attending any real estate meet-ups in your area.

They were relocating to the state so the husband could attend a specialized shool in the area.

If I were you, I’d work to get up the DP and closing costs for a single family house near the university you will attend for med school, then I’d rent out the rooms to other med students.  

Here’s some advice that I hope is actionable for you:Consider attending the California Mortgage Association’s conference this September in Newport Beach.

I'll be looking to attend local meet-ups, so maybe I'll see you around. 

Have you instead considered attending a local real estate meetup and asking for connections/opinions in that avenue? 

I also recommend attending local REI networking groups and meetups to connect with fellow real estate investors.
