Ultimately, I want to attract the highest quality tenants - IMO, your focus should be on that.

I was so focused on the acquisition side I never learned the most important part is the business side of getting the return for the next 20 years and that is where the rubber meets the road.

As far as networking, get on 2-3 Facebook groups that focus on target areas and investment strategies of interest.

Stay focused & keep feeling out your niches.

Just focus on private money lenders?

Recently formed an LLC with a business partner of mine with a focus on tax liens here in Louisville, KY. 

What it tells me is that now is not the time to buy and you should consider selling marginal properties and focus in building your cash and systems for the next housing downturn where you’ll be able to find 2% properties.

One  (the good one)  no compains in almost 5 years,  she pays on time (most of the time) her part of the lease,  one time I had a really bad tenant,  she was in her 20s with 5 kids and no job,  Housing authoirty was paying the 100% of her lease but anytime I was on the property she was with  some "visitors"     normally more than 5, after having osme discucions becasue she was not a clean lady I asked her to leave,  the good thing is she moved out without any legal action,  Be careful accepting the tenant,  even they are coming with the voucher,  you need to do your due diligence all the time,  credit score is not an issue but eviction yes Good luck 

Focus on the real stuff.Get two accounts: checking and rentingChecking: rent goes in, bills go out.

If you can find a reasonable place to rent, it might pay to postpone buying a home until you get a bit ahead financially.The Total Money Makeover by Dave RamseyI know his views can be seen as extreme, and I am not sure that I would not get into debt ever at all, but I still think focusing on getting out of and staying out of personal debt (that of course, does not cashflow) is a great way to pave your path to wealth.If you have not read these books, I highly recommend you do, and listening to the Money Show here on BP will also give you a wealth of information regarding personal finance and Financial Independence.Best of luck to you!
