There are countless ways to make money in real estate, you must choose the sector that is best suited to your strengths.If you decide that this is the niche for you then I would ask for HUDs from any potential coach.Best of luck. 

Throughout my journey I have come across countless questions I've needed to ask.

It's a great way to add a countless headaches while you build.

Doesn't mean it isn't still a good deal (I once rented in a duplex in a downtown, nice neighborhood, good appreciation, but our neighbors changed countless times during our three years there due to problems.) but a clue for you as a landlord.

Then I guess you're not serious and what you're really looking for is someone to spend countless hours educating you for free on their local market - only to have you not buy because they can't find you that unicorn property all the online gurus are telling you to hold out for.

After several years of education, preparation, and researching countless markets and strategies, my wife and I finally turned all the theory into reality and bought our first rental property in 2020.

I've read quite a few books and have watched and listened to countless hours of podcasts and videos over the past couple of months, trying to immerse myself and soak up as much RE investment information as possible.

I've taken unsolicited offers myself several times, but been approached countless times.  

It'll save you countless headaches down the road.
