Lots of new good paying jobs have moved to the area, and they are experiencing double digit real estate growth year over year.  

Get a pre-qualification letter so that can help you with some seller's.Find\Get Team members you can trust to help you and keep you from trying to do everything yourself.  

Hi team,  Property is cheap in Chgo Heights - market hasn't bounced back yet.  

@Brandon Vu  it really sounds like you should sit down with an experienced real estate professional and ask all your questions. 

Been doing a lot of research in the South Bend & Mishawaka area and am at the point where I need to contact a PM & Realtor to start building my team.

I need you on my team as a realtor.

I have another friend that has access to hundreds of 90 day lates through her job and is coming onto my team as a partner.

I am a property manager for 3 different apartments here in Tucson, and have lived here, for now, 3years and have a good credit, but so far that is the only experience I have in RE.I'm looking into buying and flipping houses (still hesitating which one would be the best way to get started between flipping houses or house hacking) but also I'm 23 years old, would you recommend finding an other RE investor to team up with for my first deal?

I will definitely have to find someone much more experienced when it comes time to file this year as it looks like the CPA I used had no idea when it came to all of this.
