As I'm an out of state investor (I live in CA, where investing is rough), I'm looking for fairly minimal repair work to start off with, and would even consider turnkey properties for now, until I can build up a stronger network in the area.  

Or do you like the hunt for a deal, networking with people, and organizing the business? 

Bigger Pockets is the premier site for new real estate investors to network with experienced investors, take advantage of valuable free resources, participate in forums, and get deals done correctly.Happy to help further. 

Although small in the scheme of things, these investors have plenty of capital and a network more, so I need to deliver.

I am looking at other places other than just BP but thought I would give it a shot to try my network on here.

@Garrath RobinsonWell you're on BiggerPockets, which is undoubtedly one of the best resources/websites, especially for education and networking.

@Dave Visaya I am looking forward to networking and learning here.

I haven't messed with computers much, I'm not a fan of Facebook so I don't, until now, social network.

I just went to tax lien seminar and they said if I pay the $597 I get 3 day class plus free software. They claimed you could search and buy available certificates straight from the program. No auction or competition. ...

You could network on here and find investors that would love to pay for the rehab in exchange for equity in the building or LLC that owns the building.
