At this point, I just organized all my existing contacts into various groups: Colleagues, Professionals, and so forth.

It's like saying I play "sports." 

Rather than get a bigger house, I'm looking for clever ways to organize my stuff.

Without a discount I think you'll find the $9k ish in closing costs and the higher rate will make you wish you saved for your next purchase organically  5 or 10 yrs from now.I'd wait a year or 2, ask the seller for a discount and save up for your next buy. 

No different if you were buying the last sports car on the lot, paperwork filled out...and I wanted it, and I paid you a fee to let me buy it instead.Please read up on the laws of wholesaling options in your state. 

I invest all over Michiana and we need a local REI, I'd be willing to help organize it.

I enjoy sports, playing guitar, and the beach.I have completed the 135 hour real estate salesperson course through Rockwell Institute, and really felt like I learned a lot.

Twitter can also be effective IF the author already has a presence (5,000-10,000 followers or more) there.For organic (non-paid) social media promotion, there will need to be a solid fanbase built up on whichever platforms you choose.

Great organization to get you started!

Work, sports on the weekends with my little guy, and family time in general ...
