There are specific cities/areas that seem more promising than others (such as Orlando, Jacksonville in FL, and Midland/Odessa, College Station in TX) but I'm finding it hard to pick one market to then resume my search for the right neighborhood and specific property.

I became interested in wholesaling, specifically, helping wholesalers in a unique way.

That’s what’s keeping me from looking there more is I can’t find a lot of info on that area specifically

Don't worry about what the contractor thinks or says, you have to make your own decision and they don't know your business and all the specifics you have to consider.

I'am considering these states as property tax and tax are low in the states and my husband did his graduation from Arizona and Nevada is closer to where i live and North Carolina is in my mind without any specific reason:) . 

If you encounter specific problems as you pursue acquiring a house hack deal, don't hesitate to post them in the forums. 

For the BRRRR Bootcamp, there is time dedicated in the first few weeks to understand what the BRRRR Strategy is, but then it will be more concentrated on the specific topics you mention above in the curriculum. 

Any thoughts specific top Austin market, and any proven Agents you can recommend in the area would be appreciated.
