@Trevor Carli Yes via meetup, however I'm in NY and typically when I get down to the area it's on a of week so I've not attended in person.  

A friend of mine is flipping a couple of properties and she was looking for some private capital.

Hello, Everyone, How are you guys doing today I owe eight property in Jacksonville and I'm looking fora contractor to do a couple repairs and fixes. 

I know it's hard, especially a first deal and all, but seriously, take a couple of chill pills, and learn.

One thing that helped me was attending all the meet ups in my local area on meetup.com.

Look up Alamo Real Estate Investors Alamo REIA They have meet ups a couple of times a month.

I have gotten into a cycle of going to the car washes 4-5 times per week, usually for a couple hours per day.

@Todd Dexheimer, you'd better be knocking on wood when you say that:)I just did some cross sectioned analysis for a client based on income and appraisal taxation coupled with growth patterns.  

I  do think pricing on fully leased good conditioned multi-families is difficult, and some I’ve looked at sell in a couple days all cash.  

I worked with rentals after Katrina and it was FEMA rent payments for a couple years
