Have you considered asking your real estate-investing uncles to offer a job and/or connect you with people they work with to hire you?

@Sean Osborne use the BP search feature to connect!

I see you're an experienced Candian-based investor looking to break into the US market as well, I'd reach out so we can be connected.

And the garage feels oversized, so I'm thinking about the possibility of converting it into a 2-car garage and adding ~300sqft of living space as another bedroom and hallway that still connects the house to the garage, so that the new layout will be 2500sqft, 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom with a 600sqft 2-car garage.

Your post doesn't make any sense and doesn't give anyone an idea of how they can help you other than that maybe you need a connection for a mortgage.

Thanks Chris, that is what I am hoping to accomplish at this stage-finding a way to provide value to those with experience.Do you have any advice on the best place to find such connections even if it is just to learn?

If there is anyone looking to connect in Georgia, South Carolina or Utah the last year that I am here I would love to!

I'll send you my email if you want to connect via a virtual meeting because there are A LOT of things I learned, however, in short, the property is doing well!

I’d love to connect with you as I believe you are also in California.

Feel free to reach out and I'll send a DM to connect.
