Yes people are nuts and banks are even worse.

Investor are going nuts for anything less than $125K for a single family home in a decent area with 3 bed, 2 bath, 1980+About a dozen phone calls day of listing and usually 3-6 offers the first day.This house would rent for about $1000 - $1100/mo.I have putting bids on these types of homes the day it's listed and I moved really fast on this one.

Now I can quit driving the techies nuts :) 

I've taken part in a few networking events which proved to be fruitful.

It seems cash buyers/investor types are sucking up all of the low hanging fruit in the entry level housing.  

Then you have your general tools like a vice grip, hammer, channel locks, flashlight, tape measure, composite shims, headlamp, box cutter with extra blades, painter's tool 5-1, wire stripper, allen wrenches, voltage detector, outlet tester, lineman's pliers, good Milwaukee demo screwdrivers, Milwaukee 11-1 with Phillips, flat heads, and 3-4 common size nuts(this is great for appliances).

., it's a little nuts here in middle Tennessee right now! 

I would like to connect with you and or other experienced investors on BP from our area to learn more about the actual investment aspect of the business and to possibly establish a fruitful relationship at some point in the near future.

The fruits of your labor will come to fruition. 

But become a SME (subject matter expert) in what ever you choose to do and before you know it the path will become very clear and your laser focus will start to bear fruit.
