I am a new investor in Dacula, Ga. looking for suggestions on how to finds deals Wholesale deals other than driving for dollars?

Just because you are an agent doesn't mean you've got to drive people around town looking at families.

A lease with a separate option to purchase is a safe bet because if his property doesn't close and he can't 1031 into yours you will at worst have to evict him. 

May you all be safe and be prosperous in the coming year!

Maybe I'm thinking a bit too safe but that's the route I would consider.Marcin

Jason, I drive by the building site several times a week.   

@James Ma - I viewed each property via Zillow I am competing with, and will likely drive by before I make changes in price.

You have to remember, these banks are investing in you as well as the properties, so try walking into a bank or two or ten with a list of your holdings and show them why their investment would be safe with you.Hope this helps,Bruce

Turnkey investing is very dependent on the market the companies are located, level of involvement desired, policies of the companies, pricing, warranties, and whether they have in-house property management.For example, the seasoned turnkey companies realize that their demand is driven by investors looking for a safe, consistent return.

I currently have a W-2 job in IT that I pretty much hate and a family that I love, which is why I keep going to said job  ;)I basically want to do REI because I have had enough of the rat race and having to worry all the time about where my money is coming in and how safe is my job.
