You are 18, you shouldn't be ready to buy a property yet.

Along with doubling in value, it has had one tenant the entire time of ownership, in fact, the out-of-state owners have never seen the property.

I can go way deeper into finding good MTR markets, pursing tenants other than travel nurses, property types, scaling operations through systems (my specialty), renovations, etc but it's much harder to do in a thread.

We installed fresh flooring throughout, updated the bathroom, and gave the entire property a fresh coat of paint inside and out.

Iown a 2bed/1 bath property in the Fort Worth Tx area.

do you acquire these properties off the MLS ?  

Quote from @Alan Mills: Got an inspection objection back with something I’ve not seen on my other rehab’s (this is a Colorado property):“The seller agrees to have a licensed plumber install external sewer cleanouts per city code and scope the sewer line ensuring its integrity.”This was a full interior/gut rehab and almost everything is brand new.

I've built relationships with property managers who have distressed properties in their portfolios that can communicate directly to owners. 

The two are almost entirely different markets in terms of price points, returns, tenant quality, and overall investing strategy.

But let me guess, Biden will issue pardons for entire CA political class......
