My wife and I were there this weekend cleaning and hanging blinds etc...the simple stuff.  

We hang out, eat pizza, and talk about real estate investing.Mat

After unit #5, I was spending 5-10 hours at most per property I bought once I got the hang of it and knew exactly what to do.Unfortunately, there is no secret sauce.  

I also plan to do some direct mailing and even flyer hanging, myself, to try and drum up some of my own deals. 

Lots of smarter people than me  hang around here and respond to questions. 

You can "drive for dollars" hang door flyers, or attend "garage or yard sales" which are typically prior to estate sales, sticky notes, and handwritten letters can help you.  

@John-Delfin Skovira for the time being I'm looking around my area; Halifax, Millersburg, Dauphin, parts of Perry County until I cut my teeth and really get the hang of things, more capital available.I'd eventually like to focus more in your area, West Shore, and Hummelstown/Hershey area as I become more experienced.I just became a realtor in August to help with this new venture and it's helping me keep a pulse on potentials in my area with some of the saved searches I created.Feel free to reach out to me at any time, for anything. 

It's a turnkey townhome we plan to hang on to.

Hang a lock box on the knob with a copy of the new key inside.

It's easier to do this now when the only thing you're missing is hanging out with friends or whatever.
