This month I met a lady at the window store who is a Century 21 Agent with a Crew of 37 who has done 200 Flips in Tampa this year and has a List of 120 properties for sale who drives an old Range Rover instead of a BMW like most of the fancy Agents I meet up with.

Nor am I....nor is any fund manager, nor is Peter Lynch one of the greatest investors of the 20th century.  

My best bet has just been doing my own searches daily on the standard apps (Redfin, Trulia, Realtor.com, etc).One realtor we met while looking for a rental with Century 21.  

Then I market the place as mid century modern and do rent to own exclusively with a 3 year lease.

Texas has lots of Fortune 500 companies located there from its legacy early-20th Century business-activity (extraction and agriculture). 

As an agent it's ncie seeing investors telling you to go with a good guy.My tip for you is to get recomendations from other investors in the area and interview at least 3.Also Century 21 is the best company ;)

I already determined to create an LLC to shield my investments from my personal finances but haven't done so as of yet due to lack of income.I don't see the lack of income changing any time soon as my full time job is caring for my wife for the past couple of years and for the foreseeable future until such time she needs to be placed into a care facility.But to get back on track, I have been interested in and following real estate investing since the turn of the century!

I have to say though when I was reading this a phenomenal 21st century development named call blocking came to mind...    

The house is mid century modern and definitely needs renovation especially as the floor plan is a little weird.But here is the question- the ceilings are very low.

I've bought century homes that require $$$ to upgrade but they have been some of my best properties.
