I would get 0% offers for balance transfers where the bank would allow me to access up to the card limit in cash and direct deposit into my checking account within 2 - 4 days (for 3% fee).

Propstream seems to be very popular and I signed up for an account but I'm confused about what to do once I have a list of leads.

Financially speaking, I'm still saving, but the goal is 50k saved up (all costs: closing, fees, down payment, portion of rehabbing costs) by this summer with my fathers help on the cash all while I continuously save 50-80% of my work checks to fund for rehabbing this property and I work off my second job and "survive off of that."

Hi Nicholas, I would recommend you check out Rent Finer and Rent Range.

I will check Donny Thompson.

Take the money saved and pay into a separate account each month until you have a downpayment for the next one. 

However, you need to making sure YOU check their work.

I highly recommend checking out this blog post and considering these states for your next investment. 

Honestly if you are never planning on moving back to the house (or the area), you are not going to cash flow especially after you add in insurance, repairs and maintenance (assuming property taxes are part of your mortgage).You have a friend willing to buy it off market-double check fair market value and sell it to them.

Being that you will be living in the property you will have a hard time holding tenants accountable.
