I have the exact same question and feel we are likely in similar spots. 

We are free from the confines of a traditional work schedule and can really dedicate as much time as is needed to manage and maintain our hopeful real estate business.

We are renovating a small 800 sqft home and need an affordable heating / cooling  solution very soon. 

My wife and I have been looking to purchase an owner-occupied multifamily property for months and with limited supply and low returns, we are adjusting our strategy.

I own an IoT company and we are thinking of building a sensor-based product for property managers.

We scout properties online, offline in and outside the MLS (there are some good deals that can be found here).We are specializing in Tucson and the surrounding, but we can provide good leads in other areas as well.  

We are located in Austin TX which is pretty close to San Marcos TX (both college towns) so it's common to have someone sign a lease guarantee form which makes them liable to pay the rent if the tenant can't for any reason.

We are looking to invest out of state.

It may violate all sales rules, but I tell new investors fairly regularly not to invest when I feel their objectives are misaligned with the fund we are offering.

@Adrian Chu we are looking in the southeast and midwest.
