The thing that I undergo when I am listening to a podcast or attending different webinars, is the lack of starters' guide.

I'm going to finally be in the position of being a cash buyer around March or so for properties around 140k and under, going to go with a BRRRR type strategy. 

I'm undergoing a full on rehab and would like to work with someone in the area.

So I'm up to 8 properties that I've bought, rehabbed and rented (well two are undergoing rehab at the moment) and all are out-of-state (Georgia).

Still undergoing construction.
