Someone who has handyman skills and who could do rehab/handyman work, a little project management and GC type work as well under my general supervision.

They function like medical properties.

I knew nothing but I got to the point that I now have serious remodeling skills.

Something to keep in mind as a skilled and hungry real estate investor is that patience is also an important trait.

How to set up and link a legal trust as a member to your SLLC so that the transfer of properties into your company is done smoothly and correctly without issues with lenders or banks, etc etc, same reason you don't DIY your own medical issues.

The market for sure is not a Austin or dfw market but Tyler being a growing medical city, it seems to be growing well. 

I might make an exception on credit score if it's related to old medical expenses.

I like RE because I can fix stuff with my hands, but if an RE investor doesn’t bring a special set of skills to the table such as being able to source discounted properties, force appreciation through sweat equity, consistently making deals like the one you described in your other post, etc., they may be better off focusing on their day job and loading up on dividend stocks. $500/month cash flow and $70k profit on a single subject to deal is not the norm. 

Most employment is govt, education or medical services for people on some form of entitlement.  

When it comes to the skilled trades (plumbing, HVAC, electrical), I’ve got my bases covered.
