Quote from @Zach Howard: Quote from @Jonathan Greene: If you are looking at properties in the US only on Zillow, and not seeing them in person (I know you are in Hong Kong), this is just an effort in futility because you can't underwrite single-family or small multifamily deals only online.

For mobile homes, it often depends on whether the property is considered real estate (attached to land) or personal property (if it’s not).

@Joshua Karas You're on the right track. 

Today I would probably figure out to make money online with AI, that's an opportunity that did not exist in this form.

Start with Reonomy or Costar to identify all the 100+ units in your target market (on and off market) and then see if you can get into direct contact with some owners.

I attended some webinars, had a strategy session and decided I could do it on my own, without the patented calculator.

The InvestRE360 Mastermind will meet on the 29th at noon in Idaho Falls, the East Idaho REIA will be February 19th in Idaho Falls at TitleOne at 5:30pm, and the PokyREIA in Pocatello should be the first Tuesday in February. 

I have used avail.co in the past with great success but it appears this software and others no longer market on zillow which I know to provide a lot of leads in the past. 

Not really sure how to go about financing but we're planning on having a down payment at or slightly above $100,000 and don't want to pay more than $3100ish per month. 

You can't take any deduction on your tax return or claim any depreciation on a property owned by the IRA, just like you can't take deduction or depreciation on a property I own.
