I've joined a few facebook groups and have two events scheduled in the next week.

More of the same! Good news! 

Also, focus on 2 years of job/income stability.Class D Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with little, maybe even negative, relative rent & value appreciationVacancy Est: 20%+ should be used to cover nonpayment, evictions & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores under 560 (almost 30% probability of default), little to no good tradelines, lots of collections & chargeoffs, recent evictions.

Your job is to solve their problem.

If the buyer wants to back out, it's the agents job to make sure they protect the buyers interests over their own.

The next phase of my maturation cycle is gaining "on the job experience" in the form of GP participation before attempting to take down a deal by myself. 

Just be aware that this adds another layer of complexity, and you’ll want to check with both your lender and a real estate attorney to make sure everything is set up correctly.When it comes to terms, owner financing gives you a lot of flexibility:Interest rate: You want something attractive to the buyer but that compensates you for the risk of holding that second lien.Repayment schedule: You can choose a traditional 15- or 30-year schedule, or go with something shorter if you want to be paid off sooner.Balloon payment: Many owner-financed deals include a balloon payment, meaning the buyer pays off the remaining balance after a set period (usually 5-10 years).

--Many will state that's your job, but then what value are they truly offering as an "investor-friendly" agent?

Some jobs in New York City are obviously going to be much pricier than jobs in Cleveland. 

It was odd for them as I has long term jobs os a seafere working for overseas companies (I'm not a US citizen) they didn't know how to deal with it, it took too long and then I could find a property that worked.
