Landlording is still a cool gig though due to the financial security and independent. 

What are good resources to find properties?

Unfortunately, the work to payoff ratio is not cutting it for me financially.

I am about to pull the trigger on a condo in Pasadena, CA and upon digging into the financials of the HOA discovered that they are funded at about 30% of what the third party HOA analysis firm would consider a full reserve.

I am currently investing in Cape May and Atlantic county.There are tons of ways to get involved and surround yourself with other investors that are doing it and doing it well.Kurt Kwart is an amazing resource that hosts investor panels as well.

I know its treated me well all these years and has led me to some pretty incredible financial adventures that wholesaling simply could not do.But if I lived in some of the rust belt markets or other markets were there are literally more homes than people to put in them. .I equate that as nothing more than being a used car salesmen.. price points are the same. style is the same.. once your done your done.Where real estate gets good is 10 to 15 years into it ALL of your business should come from referrals.. this simply will not happen in wholesaling.. wholesaling your just as good as the last sucker you talked into selling their house to you undermarket  :)

There are a bunch of resources on here to learn and feel confident when you are ready to start investing.  

But the Marketplace is still a resource.  

Search "house hack" here on BP and you'll come up with a wealth of resources.

A lot of great resources on here.
