I'm interested in Markets outside of the norm, but not necessarily so far outside the norm that they're not cash flowing, and for some reason Waco has been a gold mine of a market for me.

Off market deals are becoming gold mines and that means wholesalers are your friends.

A good property manager is worth their weight in gold.  

The sellers ad said he wanted $150,000 in gold bullion or coins.  

That is amazing and I would love to strike gold like that.

But unless you know how to roof this is going to cost you your weight in gold.

I hear anywhere in Detroit is a absolute gold mine!

He/she will be worth their weight in gold over the years and if your finances are currently very simple, you will not be paying them for very much of their time to actually DO your taxes when it comes down to filling out the paperwork.Get some word-of-mouth recommendations from local real estate investors on who's good, then drop by their office to see if you like each other in a quick interview/intro.Spend your time on the basics of managing your general business and finding deals and don't try to play catchup with accountants and attorneys so you can go around them with pieces of software....the pros may bill three figures an hour but they should find you much more than that in savings and business advice - so in the end, their hourly rate doesn't really matter much at all.

Pipeline gold.
