Quote from @Lymarie Cervoni: Looking on using Direct-Mail Marketing for Off-market properties, any recommendations on which real estate investor list to buy to target the Tampa Bay area? 

If you come to the conclusion that you need to focus on your primary earning job but want to start investing in real estate then maybe a turnkey option would be best.

Quote from @Yianni Hahalis: I'm looking to move to Cleveland within the year and get my foot in the door with real estate.

I got into real estate through an organic relationship, nor would I be where I'm at today if it wasn't for those relationships. 

I've been in real estate for the past 7 years, and I got my start like so many other investors through reading Rich Dad, Poor Dad. 

It's a super affordable real estate market where you can still find deals that hit the 1% rule anywhere from $120-180k for a single family (or $200-250k for a multifamily) purchase price.

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?
