I wasn't knowledgable and confident enough to give a offer on the spot and I lost out.

There is one main back wall that is brick that has some spots that you can see through and there is no gutter on the outside to keep from being further damaged.   

I started working in Clinical Engineering (fixing medical electronics at a hospital) while I was still in high school and stayed on full time when I graduated.  

East Simi should be priced a bit lower with some older homes, but there are some spots that are not good neighborhoods.

And is there a spot for her to sign with her name already on it?).

I learned when I bought my park, tenants don't like/trust or whatever the reason, electronic payments.

Well, looks like i got my first contact after that mailing, it is a 3 bedroom 2 bathrooms over 1400 sqft with a lot of over 18000 sqft, it is worth between 580K and 600K after repairs, it could be worth more because there is the possibility of dividing the lot in 2 and build another property, i`ll probably go see it Saturday or Sunday, it is an off market property so nobody knows about it and the owner wants to go FSBO, perfect spot, there are tenants but they are very nice apparently and aware of the sale!

Spot texturing or trying to match is difficult to do. 

In your experience, is Indianapolis a good spot to start or are there other markets that are better suited for finding income properties?

After researching online, seems like all of the banks want you to come in the branch, however I would prefer to do it online and submit all the required documents electronically.
