Some geographic challenge preventing it?

But that's a ridiculous thought especially since the other guys I think of that fit that description hardly even use the internet. 

From your description you do not need a full re-plumb.

It can be time consuming to publish to all these when you have a vacancy (figure about 30 minutes each posting descriptions, pictures, etc) or ideally your property management software will let you put the info in once and publish to them all with one click.

A great description of real estate in general is a "garage sale of humanity".

You should be looking for RE-specialization, not necessarily geographical location.My 2 favorite BP accountants are @Linda Weygant and @Brandon Hall.

I'm particularly interested in learning more about buying properties at auction.I'm open to being mentored by someone experienced in this geographic area. 

You need to look beyond the obvious and information provided in the property descriptions.

@Tzvi Balsam I'm not sure where you get the complaining portion.. lolJust to remind you - the description of BiggerPockets forums - The BiggerPockets Forums contain the answers to your real estate investing and other real estate-related questions.Which is what you should find above if you read correctly, questions...
