My advice to you is to polish your skill set and refine your goals.

My goal in real estate is simply to find a niche suitable to my skills in the market.

No pictures on the listing but it was right next to the local hospital and I could see prospective renters being young professionals/other good renters.Called the listing agent and set up a viewing for 4 PM and agent sounded very happy that someone was interested in the propertyWhen I went to go see the place it was a complete gut job. the roof was in good shape and the foundation look like brand new block foundation but the rest of the place was completely destroyed.

Looking to connect with like minded professionals here in order to network and learn from your experience.

I'm impressed by the professionalism of the community as well as the depth of information and contacts available. 

I had a quick question for those of you that use a professional property manager. 

If your pockets are TRULY EMPTY then you are not bringing one of the four items to the table that an investment needs: - Money - Time - Opportunity - SkillsIf you can provide either opportunity or skill in some fashion, you can likely partner with someone with the money.

I suppose I was just interested in finding faster ways to sort through data and pre-qualify leads other than my overseas team.
