Prep is key - you must use primer and sand between coats and all the other stuff you want to skip or it will peel and look awful.

Here they are: Biggerpockets (Networking), Things (Organize your life), Fantastical (Great calendar), Google Earth, Homesnap, Whitepages or BeenVerified (skip tracing), DocuSign, Home Depot, Fudget (Budget), Google Voice, Zillow (use MLS for true comps), Meetup, Dropbox, Office 360 Apps, YouTube (free education), and lots more.

@William Hochstedler, I appreciate your input, but I think you're skipping over the steps I'm asking about.

I say skip this and just buy a house, in your name.

It's a long story, it involves a lot of digging and research and I'm skipping to the important parts. 

I have been skip tracing my leads i found via driving 4 dollars, only thing is I have been using beenverified to skiptrace and some of  the numbers have been inaccurate.

I skipped 3 or 4 of the early ones based on the title.

Go Multifamily in the Midwest region.At least 20 units.You can skip the SFR all togethet as they mean nothing to a commercial broker

Skip the agents.

I'm am comfortable enough with my own abilities to skip home inspections but I will often still pay someone to send a camera down the sewer line.
