Even if they balk, it exercises your creative muscles. 

I have the next 10 weeks off and I have the hustle, muscle, and desire to work and bring value to someone who may or may not be looking for some help.

Also I would start looking for guys who's wife won't let them get a cabin/muscle car/New BBQ deck etc until they get rid of their pontoon boat.

Everytime I see 2 or 3 muscle or old school cars I stop and stare at them until they are out of sight, my son does it too, as does just about everyone else since they are great to look at and usually pretty loud compared to the hybrids you are used to seeing in Cali.

A few paid ones include Synthesis, The SDA - Michael Blank, and ThinkMultifamily's model.I've heard Udemy has an inexpensive course, but I haven't investigated.

I currently live in Florence but have lived in Muscle Shoals and Sheffield in the past.

Florence, Tuscumbia, Muscle Shoals, and Sheffield are, in my opinion, an undiscovered nugget for REI.

Does anyone have a contact in Muscle Shoals area who could help us finding what we are looking for?

I have also found that doing hypothetical analysis of properties is a good way to build my deal analysis muscles. 

This will give the trades or whomever you’re speaking with the opportunity to help build the schedule/plan, It was there idea / plan / schedule so there pride and professionalism is on the line, also when there is a disagreement you have a little more muscle on your side.Mike CampbellProject Manager
