Focus on absentee owners and start with the ones who live the farthest away and only own one property in the area since they have the least use for the property.You can also drive for dollars, looking for anomalies of disrepair and then look them up in the tax records and use a site like Spokeo to do cheap skip tracing.

Are you looking to invest into a passive vehicle or are you able to utilize the funds in more of an active capacity?

I found some tenants consistently looked at it as rent is not due until the 10th, then would ask for leniency because they were only 1 day late on the 11th.

Do you have an idea of how much money you're looking to spend on/invest in a property?

Detroit is worth considering if you’re looking for a market where BRRRR is still very much viable.

I generally don't because I don't have time, but it is probably worth looking into if you have one rental.  

I've talked to a ton of lenders and if they know it's an investment property, you're looking at 15-20% down minimum (non owner occupied).

Just look that up.

Quote from @Virginia Frost: I'm always looking for a good opportunity but honestly my next purchase will probably be something that I don't have to do a total overhaul on.

Are you looking outside of Tyler?
