We always recommend starting local when possible.

Hi, Im trying to get some feedback on whats the best programs to do text blasts & voice blasts.  Also integrating them with Podio as well as an option.  It can be stand alone.

I'm a local realtor and investor, so I’d love to help you find the right property and navigate the market.

In CA (my market) the seller is required to make honest disclosure statement and you can collect for material non-disclosure.I suspect you already have learned that you need to check the status of all permits. 

@Michelle Hardy Just adding, check your local city too for their requirements, many have specific requirements that the state may not have.Here in VT in the towns my properties are in, there is not a requirement to keep them separate or pay interest. 

If you're considering mobile homes, the first step is checking zoning laws and utility access since some areas have restrictions.For resources, Mobile Home University is a well-known starting point, and local mobile home dealers can offer insights on placement and financing.If mobile homes are allowed, you could either rent them yourself for higher returns but more management or rent out the lots for steady cash flow with less work.

Happy to chat about the FW market, we have several investors in that area with various results using LTR/MTR rentals.

Find local real estate investor meetups and attend the meetings.

I look every day for off market houses to flip.

While @Phillip Austin mentioned Raleigh is a higher returns its just very much a appreciation market, you will not find rentals that cashflow, so depending on your goals its a good or bad market.
