I think investing local is best for most people, but not everyone.3) Start analyzing deals in the market you're going to invest in, compare those deals to your preferred strategies in section 1.4) Buy stuff. 

I over-analyze every decision I make in regards to where I put my money, and am working on understanding of basic ROI principles with SFH properties.

Finally, BP has various tools available to help you analyze your deals (rental, flips, wholesale, etc), feel free to use them: https://www.biggerpockets.com/investment-calculators Please let me know if I can help, and best of luck!

I have worked in the real estate industry in analyzing properties and underwriting appraisals.

@Diana for your first wholesale deal, maybe try to find an experience flipper/rehabber here on bigger pockets in your area to work with and figure out a wholesale fee that would be appropriate for you and they can help you through analyzing the property construction costs, doing the construction, and overall project so you get paid to learn a lot about the business first hand. :)

I have been practicing analyzing deals, and trying to educate myself on figuring out rehab costs.

If you could make this work better by renting it by the room or as an AirBnb, you could analyze it that way, but either way, your PITI is going to be close to $1300 with a 20% down, 30 yr conventional loan for a SFH rental.

@Jonathan Tran after analyzing quite a few properties in this forum in quite a few states, I've seen a wide enough range of property taxes to believe that they play a significant part in whether a deal cash-flows or not. 

Any websites that you guys depend on when analyzing a deal?
