I am looking to begin my family’s real estate investing journey in the next 1-2 years as we save up for the purchase.

I’m preparing for my retirement by becoming an a real estate investor.

I know there are a ton of features I don't utilize personally, I mostly use it just for tenant application and screening process, and then for rent and fee collection In my personal experience here's my pros and consPros•Had a template for screening questions on the application so I didn't have to think of things to ask myself•Handles rent collection easily and for only a $1 fee to my tenants for ACH transfer which makes it easy for both parties•I can set up all rent and fees at the beginning of a lease term so it's set it and forget it for me•My tenants have said setting up auto-pay was easy and I like to make it as easy as possible for them to pay me!

Hey guys, I am looking to broaden my cold calling lists and want to add the "tired landlords" to the mix.

My next question is about financing options.

From my experience:- Propstream has more detailed and complete information and better for finding off market deals.- Privvy is easier for seeing investor activity in the area and seeing the before/after of flips (how much they bought and sold it for) How do you find off market deals on Propstream? 

My wife was born and raised in Malaysia.

I abide by the previous on my acquisition and those of my investors. 

One of my meetings there was with a real estate lawyer who specializes in legal contracts.

Wtf.It's a duplex that I have a primary Va loan on in my personal name.
