@Derek Samuelson I think your scenario needs some analyzing.  

She can search for properties and you can both analyze them together.

Then when your mortgage company gets the tax bill to pay, they'll pay it, analyze your escrow, refund the overage (or charge for a shortage), and adjust your mortgage payment going forward with the actual estimated taxes based on a real tax bill. 

Besides the many toils and snares, i got a feel for the neighborhood, checked out my first possible investment property and am analyzing it now.

I analyzed 100 deals, put an offer in on 10 and pulled the trigger on one.

@Moises TurciosThe key to picking the right investment is information and the ability to analyze the information, and make a good decision.

Found a 4 bed 2 bath 1404 sqft in Tampa, FL. Property is listed as a SFR but could easily be converted back to a duplex with separate entrances. View report

However, if you intend to find a buyer to assign the title to, how can you provide enough information to them to allow them to analyze the deal if you haven't seen it yourself?

Try breaking down what it is that is causing you to experience 'fear' in taking action.Try setting yourself smaller commitments that will get you towards your goal and list out what the risks are and how you might mitigate them.An example of a commitment would be to make x offers per week on target propertiesBreaking down a risk might be something like-Risk - target rents not achieved-Action/Mitigation - analyze comps to give you more confidence in the rental rates, model the deal more conservatively so that you can see if it works with lower ratesetc.Do a bit of research and I am sure that you can find lots of actionable help on how to overcome fear of taking action.

I don't know how to analyze these types but I am learning the ropes.
