I am educating myself, sticking my neck out asking questions, and networking.So where do I start?

Luckily I came to my senses beforehand and got rents to market, but there are tons of properties in my neck of the woods with rents that are way below market. 

Ask what they spend most of their time on or their bottle neck in their deal process and how you can help alleviate that step.

Also, glad you are coming into our neck of the woods.

Don't go to those buildings unless you have some muscle with you. 

Ohio is much different than Florida, so I imagine there's even less opportunity for those long-term, stable, high returns in your neck of the woods!

He recently bought another home - far from this one, so taking care of this one is a pain in his neck and a burden on his pocket.

Evan,I went through a job loss and bankruptcy in 2010, a divorce in 2011 and the following year was diagnosed with a Head/Neck Stage 4 cancer; basically was given a less than 5% chance of survival.

Ok, I am sitting here analyzing a deal - building my real estate math muscles! 

You gotta use that neck-weight for some thought processing.
