Since you're open to markets beyond NYC, you might want to connect with local investor meetups or REI groups in those areas to build relationships with agents, wholesalers, and lenders who understand the nuances of each market.If you're looking to break out of analysis paralysis, maybe start by narrowing down one or two target markets and running numbers on actual deals.

You need to start from the beginning thqt there are no deals, They pay they get a nice place that is it

What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

If all in around $435k, wouldn't she need to leave money into this deal with a projected ARV at $500k?

Since you know what you need to buy it at and an average rehab cost, I would say $50-70k for a cosmetic flip, set the ARV based on the sample you choose and doing comps and ask them if they would invest in a deal similar to this. 

Quote from @Yael Doron: Hi BiggerPockets community,We’re a young couple just getting started in real estate investing, and we’re particularly interested in BRRRR deals in Queen Creek, Arizona.

Of course like all meetups there are people there who have gone every month for probably 10 years and never done a deal. 

Quote from @Jaycee Greene: That's a nice deal.

Because you need to send 3000 mailers calls or texts to the foreclosure list to get one deal. 

To attract investors, offer incentives like high cash flow potential and tax benefits, and structure the deal with clear legal terms and contingencies to minimize risk.Good luck!
