My first suggestion is to join a local real estate investors association, just google and ad your city, so you can find a mentor or partner who has the same interest that you do.Some basic methods of finding properties are:1) Driving for dollars - Drive your farm area looking for vacant and distressed properties2) Place adds in small newspapers or direct mail newsletters3) Place adds on internet sources like craigslist and backpages or Use homemade bandit signs (batman buys houses etc.)4) Other wholesalers5) expire mls listings or FSBOSSome more advanced methods are:1) Working City Code Violations2) Creating a Birdog network3) Tenant evictions list4) Tax certificate sales pre auction list5) Bankruptcies/divorcesOf course you still have foreclosures and probates, but those are the norm and have heavy competitionGood luck Big E

On significant disadvange that would concern me is loss of the homestead exclusion in the event of bankruptcy,.

Bankruptcy through foreclosure can cost $20k in some states.
