Quote from @Jonathan Bock: They can be fun but also time wasters as well I have only personally bought off auction.com Jonathan - do you have any tips on how to get started?

I feel like you should be able to customize the mortgage section of this calculator but I can't figure out how to adjust my payments to the amount I agreed on with the seller. 

I feel it HAS to be called out as the opposite.Are you a little guy?

I look forward to continuing to learn from the BiggerPockets community as I navigate my real estate investing journey.I’ve had some success on the eastern shore of Maryland, though even that market has started to frankly become expensive, there are still pockets of potential growth both rent & appreciation, thoigh it’s becoming harder to find, also there is a massive rental shortage out there, a county I just put a property contract on, literally has 3 properties for rent right now, but it does make rental comps quite difficult, outside of that I’ve started looking a little more into western Md and some southern pa markets but still trying to get a feel for them, overall I think in this market places that are affordableish and have some draw will do well with the continued wfh + affordability crisis but keep in mind while I think the eastern shore is actually fairly safe market for the most part a lot of rural areas definitely have boom bust potential and in theory more risk than dc metro, though the low price points do by definition tend to mitigate some of those risks. 

This helps you get a feel for them and their pricing. 3.
