However, the rebound rate is impressive.

Professionals with decades of experience and very impressive track records do all the heavy lifting for you.

I have been very impressed with FS House (@Ryan Mullin and Steve Lehman).  

That first impression will never go away.

I met Taylor at Brightstar in North Padre and I was very impressed it just wasn't what I wanted for my first purchase.  

I don't believe my parents will be against it but I was under the impression that since I'll have rental income backing me up to almost "guarantee" mortgage will be paid it won't be much of an issue.

Very impressive for 1 year and no prior experience

I am impressed that you got a contractor to come out to walk the house with you and to write up a bid. 

You will get some good advice and hopefully make a good impression so if they ever are hiring they give you a call.As for an actual job analyzing deals full time, I'm not sure it exists and if so I doubt it pays a ton.
