You should also evaluate your talents to see what you can offer.

I was looking into maybe going to work for another investor, because I do have talents to offer and help.

BP made me realize that the people I see on DIY and HGTV aren't the real people doing this; those are celebrities who, while clearly talented, had years and years of work and practice to make what they do look easy, and that I can get there one day.I plan to buy and flip my first property in the next two years, after which I will continue flipping/selling until I can buy a rental property for cash, repeating the process until I am comfortable.

Now we are at a place where we are able to leverage other people’s time, talents, and money to acquire properties.

A CPA who specializes in your industry can be a great partner.There is plenty of good talent here on BP.  

In the end, I wasn't very talented at putting quality tenants in the units, and I paid the price with several evictions. 

Finally, If there is any way I can add value to your business, please feel free to reach out, I would love to feature some local talent in Northern NJ.

I understand if you want somebody local, but expanding your search nationwide will definitely increase the talent pool and you'll find more real estate specialists.

I'm very interested in connecting with local wholesalers, I feel like currently the rehabbing aspect is my strongest ability/talent with all this.

Right now I am currently working a full-time job in the Talent Aquisition field along with serving part time in the Army National Guard.
