Hello I am in a great situation to get started in Real Estate investing - 24 years old, working 8 to 9 months out of the year (work a lot of hours during that time so could not devote too much time to real estate in that period), and making great money (100+).

I have: cash for down payments (low-mid 5 figures), desire to succeed in real estate and time to devote to educating myself on real estate and also finding a good property to invest in. 

Evictions every month, then the cleaning up and painting, and the general chasing the tenants for rent took more time than I wanted to devote to the rentals.

I'm willing to change the planned geography, but will I only know to do so after devoting large sums each month, for six to eight months?

My hope is that there is already sewer, water and electricity hookups on site as there is an existing house on the lot, but it may not be enough capacity for 4 separate lots.You are spot on, the exit method is dependant on how much time and money I can devote to this.

Regardless of how much the agent spends or time he devotes to his business, off-market lead sources are worth money.If the agent has real sellers with properties that you want, don't waste time or mental energy on his commission.
