Definitely attend TREIA (Triangle Real Estate Investor Association) - you'll make a lot of great contacts there.  

@Nick Heil @Chris SeveneyI think Chris hit the nail on the head. 

Hi @Arturo Borges I've noticed within the market conditions that any property listed for sale that is completely redone from head to toe whether it is high end or medium end SELLS and SELLS quick.

Furthermore, if the seller or buyer were to come after anyone I would be liable, I wouldn't be properly protected, put my company at risk, and Zip forms are proprietary documents with an intended use, and the California Association of Realtors could come down on me for improperly using their documents.

Only downside to my situation is that I'm not crazy familiar with the area (I moved to the area about 8 months ago)I like the idea of renting to students because I just graduated and can kind of get in the head of college students and what they like in terms of living situations.

If you invest using your head, A is the obvious choice.  

Latest Data On Houston Market From RECONHouston Housing Market Has Strongest January On RecordHOUSTON (Realty News Report) – The new year started off on the right foot as local Realtors had the strongest January ever.The Houston Association of Realtors (HAR) reported 4,469 single-family home sales in January, up 8.9 percent from the 4,104 sales in January of last year.Housing inventory was unchanged from the 3.3-months supply a year earlier.

This system has enabled me and my associate investors to make lots of fast money.

This past year I really embraced the cashflow mentality but might be getting in over my head.

I know what my personal goals are, they are similar to yours, I know the numbers are my weakness and also THE most important part so I'm taking them on head on and this was the first step.
