Alot of the older baby boomer generation are ready to retire and sell bc they are tired of managing, if you can find a seller finance deal it allows for you to be more creative and flexible with the down payment.  

It worked out great, had a great tenant and was charging 1350.00 on a house we bought for 160k with low property taxes, expenses etc..Currently my mother in law lives in it so she can help with taking care of babies so we aren't making anything on it right now.

From Detroit, east of the city    very little experience , no friends, can't remember much (brain tumor) low -no money, new born baby my motivation, no one on my team (not a single soul just me as of now) , looking to make profits from real estate that could change my life with my wife and daughter

Just don't make baby boomers be your niche, many of that generation prefer all the old fashioned 20th century salesmanship nonsense, they like being lied to, and they enjoy being manipulated (context: I got started as an assistant to someone from that generation, and kind of got started on my own when I realized that the younger consumers would ignore him and communicate with me instead, but the older consumers never wanted to speak with me at all because they preferred the lies and manipulation). 

My wife and I are having a baby in a couple weeks so we will have to see how expenses go.
