I will just say there is great vlaue in starting out in an area where you have contacts and resources (Provo) as long as you can find a cash flow deal.

One was taken over by some squatters causing problems for the neighbors and the police were contacted who contacted the lender.

A few years ago there were a lot of get rich quick types, and I still get contacted by people who think they can buy 2 houses and retire on the cashflow. 

Finally, the data they are using to demonstrate the price hike is WAY out-dated.

I’ve had multiple people contact me and I’m looking for possible solutions.

all she kept saying is, I have to go through a 10-hour course video, "commercial real estate investmenting for beginners" then someone will contact me after I've gone through it.

Now we're just a number.Got the same contract penalty cancellation response when I contacted them. 

Create columns for Name, Street Address, City, State, Zip and then contact info: Last Contact, Relationship, Status, Email & Phone.IMPORTANT: do NOT ask people for THEIR business, ask for referrals!

I would also contact your insurance company as well and notify them of the claim of theft. 

From digging into real time market data and calcualting cash flow.. to literally driving for dollars, you want someone with an incredible network of pros who can unearth leads (probate attorneys, divorce attorneys, local fix and flip circles) that might connect you with a ready buyer or flud tenant.
