There are plenty of other parts of town with good schools too - this is just a start.There's also lots of flipping activity ITP, targeting young professionals and married couples with no kids yet.

Then there are annual dues and fees to keep your license active.

The Canadian section of the forums has a few threads with active RE investors in/around your market.

Don't have much knowledge but hope someone can point me steps or good legal person I can talk to :) Hi Ken-Seek out land trusts to see if that will suffice your business as well instead of a direct LLC.

@Jay Elvin I'm not in your area, but I would double check that they are licensed realtors if required by your state for leasing activity and look over their contract for any red flags.

This rules out you and certain family members.More workable situations generally involve a clear separation between your activities and those of your Solo 401k plan.

I am seeking advice or help now that I would have to view the properties alone. 

Also, you can seek out Lease Options, Rent to Own, or Seller Financing if you ask enough landlords and/ or sellers.  

I want to actively work towards my deal as fast as possible but i'm unsure if I'll exactly be able to qualify for a conventional loan with my lower score and lack of a full time job.

Just like I have a clause that prohibits any illegal activity.
