Post an ad on Craigslist or something, it's not that hard to measure out and paint lines, you could even tell you're manager you'll give him $150 to do it if he wants the extra money. 

Over the past couple of years, I’ve picked up the general concept of investing in rental properties, but from sources like YouTube and BiggerPockets, I am aiming to learn and implement useful real estate strategies!

I can send you a referral for an HML we refer our clients over to (we wholesale residential deals) but aim to have conversatoins like, "I'm looking for ____ because we want to _____ and accomplish ____."

For properties located in primary markets, instead of a dichotomous characterization of a property either cash flowing or not cash flowing, wouldn't it be more appropriate to measure the degree of cash flow?

This is a document that uses the address in question and the FEMA flood maps and determines where the structure (note we can only insure structures not land) The reading will come back with a note that the property is in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) which are typically your A's and V's.An  Elevation Certificate (EC) is a document that a homeowner usually has to do and pay for and is typically used by the  FEMA/NFIP/Government policy (which has had a  50-year monopoly on flood insurance) The Elevation certificate is done by a FEMA approved Surveyor where they come out and get a bunch of measurements around your property (Elevation measurements) and put together the formal EC this cost anywhere from $600 - $1200 I always recommend my client shop the options and pit them against each other.

My sole aim to find a investment property with positive cash and appreciation over long term.

It would be interesting to see if there's a measurable increase in deals, or even if just one seller said that the brochure clinched it for them.

You can either start measuring penises or be professional and go on with business. 

My husband and I were aiming to “go wide” with leverage and then “go deep” and start paying houses off.
