My name in Evan Renaud and fairly new to bigger pockets forum after months of podcasts and books. 

I went with him one day.. now to be fair he had a bunch of Victorians that had 4 to 8 doors in each building so it was not like dirivng to 100 houses. 

@Preston Duron There are a number of ways you can go if you are looking for something fairly passive to get into. 

Technology advancements such as email, phone calls, skype has enabled communication with a remote CPA to be seamless.

I do like CA as an overall market as the population is increasing, housing is scarce, and property taxes are fairly low (1%).

She follows up, she has fantastic communication skills (always available), she has a thorough knowledge of the local market, she has a great team in place to help her, and it's obvious she has a passion for what she does.  

I'm fairly new to the forums myself, but I've been listening to the podcast (which you should probably check out if you haven't already) and reading articles on the site for over a year now and I'm getting ready to jump in and start on my first deal as well. 

Not to mention (since you're in Little Rock) how you look at economic vacancy between, let's say the River Market and something off of Mabelvale Pike.What's more material for you (and something that's fairly constant) is the amortization table that your lender will use. 

I've done 3 deals, my first one I worked alongside a mentor he held my hand through the whole deal and took over towards the end because I still didn't know or had experience dealing with banks, the other two I did on my own where I put up the Ernest and Option money and sent the contract off to title and I didn't even have to do a double closing because both my Seller and Buyer knew from the get-go what I want for providing my services and I'm all about fair deals, I hoenstly see wholesaling as a necessary evil.
