You know how to manage a property.To get started, your first steps should be getting licensed then meeting with a local RE attorney so they can help you get set up with your contracts, management and lease agreements, etc.

Here's what works for me: 1) Posting your property on Facebook Marketplace2) Craigslist3) Talk to local universities or big corporations who may need short or long term housing for their clients4) Property managers are hit or miss.

And the best way to start networking is here on BP and attending your local REIA meetings IMO.

Make sure any renovations comply with local regulations and obtain the necessary permits if plumbing changes are involved.

I would check your state and local regulations. 

I am new and I am checking in to see who is local to Albuquerque or in New Mexico and wants to meet up for coffee to talk about investing and goals! 

The front end can sometimes be tedious to get approved by the local housing authority, but rent payments are always timely.

I am new to real estate investing and looking to connect with any local investor.

Tenants have come mostly by word of mouth through some local tradesman.

They are a more local and relatable example.
