Some case managers with Section 8 will go to bat for you, so try to establish a good rapport with them and the other folks at your local Housing Authority.Lastly, learn about CPTED (crime prevention through environmental design) to make your property uninviting to criminals and safer for your tenants.

I will also be setting aside some of my own money to begin marketing to off-market sellers (wholesale style), in order to find a great opportunity.My question: Seasoned investors, if you had $130,000 to invest, what approach/strategy would you use, in order to build up some capital for more future RE investments?

Also, one issue we have faced with our OKC property, sense moving away, is that we are limited to the Air BNB style of renting; and that gets harder to do from far away. 

Personal preference and style would come into play but I think you could find 5 investors from one city to do this for sure.

Eventually I will have to get with an engineer, but for estimating income, I think I should estimate total spots.SecurityFor this, I'm thinking a standard chain link fence with a pin-style automatic sliding gate. 

@Lacy Tilley agreed, you need an environmental company (who doesn’t do the remediation themselves) test for unsafe levels of mold.

Remember style, amenities, sq ft etc you want to make sure your condo is competitive relating to the rent you are commanding.

Imagine talking to a real estate agent or estate investor and they show you a house that is going to be rehab it is horrible but then you put on these glasses and the information is in there on what it would look like after it's done so you can imagine and picture actually see what it would look like all fixed up in the colors you can choose right then and there for the options and then also the layout of carpet or even picking and choosing styles of beds cabinets refrigerators and furniture so the customer doesn't have to be discouraged on looking at the horrible house that it is now but what it could look like for the possibility of attracting more buyers to that specific property.... perhaps it's already a thing and I just haven't looked into it as much I just had an idea and thought I would throw it out there

@Clinton Davis I like your style!

You will want to move forward with a system that you are comfortable with - some want more safety/privacy as they begin investing while others have more aggressive investment styles.
