I think basically the deal with ABQ is that there is very little growth and very little new inventory coming online, which means on the one hand you are protected from rising vacancy but on the other investment RE is expensive for what it is, as no new inventory comes online to push down prices. 

I’ve watched several videos on YouTube and many articles online as well.

I have been researching on line, and have come across information that indicates that the IRS has  a minimum interest rate for family loans that needs to be charged.Can I take a interest free loan from them?

It's really easy to get lots of information about properties online so i would suggest use those resources to find and analyze deals and then figure out what you are comfortable with.

The Florida Bar has free forms online

I use tenantcloud for $9/mo and have tenants pay online. 

@Luke Naylor I still recommend Quickbooks Online Plus.

From there I did as much research online and I went to conferences, I bought courses, read books,I listened to podcasts and youtube videos.A good place to start is with Fuquan Bilal's  book Called  "Turning distress into success".

I have looked at employment and growth rankings online and things like that but I also like to hear it from actual investors. 

@Jesse KerrYou can ask them about average sales prices, days on market, housing statistics, age of neighborhood/when homes were built, things like that.If you’re interested in demographics or crime rates, you need to look at sites like city-data dot com or neighborhood scout dot com or local police websites, or whatever you can find online, as agents can’t provide that information to you.
