Commercial real estate investing is largely a matter of analysis regarding financial data, conservative projections based on that data, and market/feasibility.  

We are in need of MLS access, and looking for a Young, Driven, and Motivated one to work with..

While it's easy to group a whole city into thought buckets ("good area" "bad area"), I like to take a more data intensive approach.

I think this is twofold, one because the prices have been driven very high (and I'm late to the party) and the FHA payments usually are also higher (including insurance, etc.), and two because it's difficult to get the FHA loan on a property that is 70-80% and needs repairs, so nothing from my current wholesaler contacts would work. 

Remember that like most of these sites, the data may be stale.It depends on the seller whether they want no financing contingencies or if they're flexible.It depends on whether you can get the info a lender would need to go in to closing with a loan commitment.

Happy to dig up sales comps or some other data if you wish.

Main difference is I'm about 8 years earlier than you on the real estate journey line.If you see me at the Meetup @Kevin Fox mentioned, please do say Hi ... or feel free to reach out if you have any specific questions you think I could help with - I'm by no means the longest running B&H investor here, but can provide plenty of opinions and actuals data based on various types of property in the area south of 52, north of 94, and west of La Mesa.Good luck!  

What kind of data do you have Patlive collecting? 

If you have access to better data in the DFW area, I will help you crunch it! 

I've driven for dollars, posted "We'll Buy Your House" ads on Craigslist and Facebook, mailed a list of people and only ran into a couple of people who wanted way more than their house is worth.
