As I understand it, many brokers provide this software to their sales agents as well.

I have an excellent agent partner who is an MTR manager there with 24 units.

Then check off all the things you need to do to buy a property and get them done (get preapproved, find an agent, contractor, etc.) 

We have family teams in place in both markets of Texas & Virginia and source deals on/off market through agent referrals, cold calling motivated sellers and PPL.Well, if you get more deals than you can handle and they’re too good to be true I have a friend in San Antonio that buys properties I might could point you to. 😇 

I get these data through a partner that's a real estate agent so I know what you're talking about.

MLS - I waived my buyer agent commission.

Quote from @Joel Bechtel: The agent I spoke with has about 30 years of insurance experience, so I’d hope she knows what she’s talking about and what she’s offering.I have another policy with Allstate for my 6-unit property, which they were able to insure for approximately $890K because the replacement cost came in under $1M.

If it's an easy cosmetic deal I wouldn't sweat over it too much as long as major items look good - plumbing, electrical, foundation, roof, HVAC, zoning, etc.This is why for first timers it's a lot easier to go with on-market or off-market sourced with an agent than wholesalers.

I and would love to connect with agents, wholesalers and contractors.

Any tips anyone can share on how to find a reputable and trust-worthy contractor and/or a lawyer who can write up less riskier work contracts?
