I am looking to network and hopefully be of assistance as well as we all grow.

Some of these complexes are not brought up to the digital times yet.You say water is 55k.

You are competing against people with deep pockets that don't need double digit returns for this to be attractive to them.    

hi my name is Da'Juan and I'm brand new in real estate investing and wanting to start out wholesaling to gain some money then move on to rehab do anyone have any advice on starting out and is there anyone already investing in the area that is looking for houses that I might can assist 

I begin investing in Tax Liens approximately two weeks ago.I felt the timing was right and since I had some disposable income, I jump head first.I am still relatively new to the area and invited a fellow business colleague to assist me with accessing some of the areas; well a partnership was born.Although, we are both novices in Tax Liens, I have a solid background in researching topics (mostly taxation) but I digress so I felt mildly comfortable with this sudden turn of events.Well in hindsight, my partner and I management style is vastly different; this is where the slight nuisances started to appear. 

I am an on-site manager 25 units plus also assist with managing 7 additional SFR.

Dogs/cats ect are "pets", service animals are not pets they are "medical assistance".

If I can be of any assistance, please let me know.  

There are also usually many local first-time home buyer assistance programs that help you if you are willing to owner-occupy for a few years.
