Work with experienced local realtors, attend investor meetups, and use tools like Zillow, Redfin, and Rentometer to analyze potential properties.Good luck!

In my devious mind, I thinking like you that I hire a parking attendant, install gates and charge an entrance fee if I bought it. 

Alternately, if you’re going to do this at volume, and you’ll have to since margins here are thin, I would attend some of the lender conferences.

Nothing penciled out on our spreadsheet for buying and profitably running something in Denver at the moment. 

I would be able to manage the finances, marketing and showings even while working but maybe not attend to the small stuff such as getting a random call to fix something stupid at 3pm when I'm 6 hours out of town or on my 30th day of night shift 12s. 

One of my units was a successful Airbnb that hit the market due to the changing Denver laws so I'm usually open to discussing arbitrage options on that property. 

I used to live in Peoria & attended GCC.

Attending meetups and collaborating with those who use strategies like BRRRR can also open doors for networking and learning.Good luck!

I recommend finding local meetups to attend. https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521I have found all of my best connections at local meetups.

Just as much as you compare yourself to others that got lucky (literally, they could have lost their butts too) with better investments/markets, you also need to consider the folks that never invested, live paycheck to paycheck, etc...Markets that got away for me: Frisco/breckenridge/summit county (Never could have bought there anyway, just hurts I probably won't be able to)Denver/Co springs: Own one here, but from 2018-2022 a lot of values doubled, I purchased january 2022.
