If you have good referrals for those from other landlords please do post 

I've temporarily moved to a referral network only, and am very happy to answer questions and connect investors with real estate agents, property managers, and other service providers in NW Florida. 

I understand the argument that the general public should not be restricted from investing in “highly profitable” deals, but what tends to end up being offered to unaccredited, unsophisticated investors in the “junk” end of the investment spectrum. 

They get a referral for getting you to sign up. 

In a seller's market, home prices typically increase due to limited inventory, while in a buyer’s market, prices tend to be more negotiable.

. - provided you can resist the urge to spend it instead of using it as intended.Yes, you can add to the principal payment amount every month if your budget supports that.Here's the piece that folks tend to gloss over: This method of debt acceleration only works if you have money left over at the end of the month after all your debts and expenses are covered. 

Overall, that doesn't drive up the price of homes like tech markets tend to.We tend to lean towards a healthy balance of linear markets that are starting to have "something" that people are moving there for.

Vet them thoroughly and, if you can, try to get referrals from other investors.Also, take your time.

I have started small and out of state where I am entrusting people based on referrals.

I'd go to a local REI meetup for referrals.
