Highly recommend you connect with a local expert such as @Josh Green!

@Victor Olaniyi I would go to as many local meetups as possible so you can meet agents that are actively seeking business in the areas you want to purchase in.

As stated above brush up on the local city, county and state laws.

I'm working with some local brokers to find off market deals to aid in the time aspect.My wife and I have an 18 month old and another joining us in a couple months.

If you wants to find a property in Nashville you should define your investment goals, research the market, choose a location, assess your budget and financing options, choose a particular type of property, become acquainted with local regulations, network with professionals, conduct thorough property search and due diligence, think about one’s long-term investment strategy and assess risks and opportunities.You can locate a good home in Nashville by taking these steps and consulting with knowledgeable local consultants.Good luck!

If you take my money for managing my rental and disclose to me that you get a fee from the local vendor for giving them business, or you disclose that they give you a discount and you keep the difference between what they would have charged, and what they do charge I want it clear and out in the open. 

I'm in Gilberts and I work with a lot of local investors in Chicagoland, both with getting started/house hacking, and also building up to their first 10 properties creating their REI empire.

Our interest in the Donna Kay deal in Nashville, TN, was driven by:Strong Market: Nashville's robust real estate market.Profit Potential: An ARV of $315,000 presented a clear profit opportunity.Location: The property's desirable neighborhood added to its appeal.Collaboration: Partnering with Seth Choate provided local expertise.These factors made the deal an attractive investment for Partner Driven.

Depends where you are and the local laws.
