Get paid.I truly respect your apparent desire to learn the sales process, that's what it all really boils down to.

Furthermore, if the area continues to deteriorate it might get to a point where you need to decrease your rent to get tenants in, and that just opens the door for less desireable tenants.

I desire to be an unstoppable force for good in this world, and right now real estate investing looks like one of the best ways to gain the resources necessary to do that.

I totally understand the burning desire you have to assemble a portfolio and make your mark.  

Buy in a desirable area, near the metro if possible so it would be easier 1. to market it, get many applicants and have more choices to select a good tenant. 2.) ideally get more professionals/steady income renting who will hopefully give you less headaches.
