Any advice would be greatly appreciated.  

I attend seminars, and real estate meet ups, as well as work with my local housing authority to keep up with the local tenant landlord laws. 3) We did all of our own maintenance.

@Cosmo DePintoYou've received several responses and pieces of advice, but no one has directly answered your question (until now):-Has anyone had an any recent success using BRRRR in Huntsville? 

If anyone has experience or can share some advice, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Once you identify a realtor you want to use make sure you have a long conversation with them to break down exactly what you are looking for in your first REI.My advice is do lots of research on every property and make sure you identify its current market for both rents and value. 

Lots of good advice here, but no one asked what your parent's retirement plans are?

Wow so many great replies and advice.

I echo Jay's advice and experiences.

Looking for any input or advice on how this strategy actually works.
