@Darrin Kelsey I would check your local meetup groups, but if you can't find one in your area reach out.Good Investing...

I don't have any property in Memphis myself though - I would strongly suggest reaching out to investors who do own property in Memphis to get their opinion on it (many folks here on BP are very helpful and willing to provide insight). 

If you feel confident in running numbers, I would say your first step is to reach out to various wholesalers and get on their distribution list.

When the time comes feel free to reach out.

Hey Angelo, I would suggest reaching out to some investor friendly lenders to see what loan options you have available for your current situation.

Feel free to reach out via PM. 

Hey fellow investors,I wanted to reach out to the community for some advice on a potential real estate investment strategy I've been considering.To give you a bit of background, I currently reside in Southern California and am eager to dive into the world of real estate investing to secure a financial foundation for my retirement.

Feel free to reach out with any questions.

Looking at Zillow, I can easily find comparable properties in the area that were sold for less - with a bit of cherrypicking I can find examples going for 30-35% less2.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
