Or, you could do short term rentals on sites like Airbnb or VRBO.

At the meetings you go to try to meet other attendees and follow the general advice on this site by seeing how you can add value for them. 

During a site visit of the premises, I observed hoarding conditions of my newly renovated unit. 

I'm a newbie to this site and to wholesaling. 

It is amazing how far this site has come along from the beginning.

No doubt, it's a risk tho..Naturally I would much prefer something with less overhead that performs well, and I'm willing to buy my way into an established market, but then I'm starting from scratch, and frankly despite having some reasonable tools at my discretion I don't really know how to data mine the entire US.Now that the dust is starting to settle after years of being in the trenches with this duplex, it's clear to really make money with this you have to have a portfolio, as I read in an article from this site, 1 or 2 rentals ain't gonna do it.

I don't believe that many people on this site have been in that much of a financial bind (after all, no one would ever invest in real estate with negative cash flow), so it's going to take some creative traditional and non-traditional methods.

I am going for a site visit this week and am wondering what other questions or info would be important to have or find out.
