Make sure to set-up your keyword alerts in your settings here on BP so you can be notified of topics/connections you'd like to follow.I'd also recommending joining your local investor groups on Facebook - easier to connect with local players and get boots-on-the-ground type referrals.Best of luck to you!!

The Self-Sufficiency test makes it pretty much impossible to get a desirable property with less than 10% down.Single Family REITS have also greatly outperformed multifamily in the last years and now institutional players are getting involved.
