I deal with Flippers and Builders and Buy/Hold Landlords.My firm has been putting out Off-Market Investment property with 20% equity, Minus the cost of repairs.So, I've been dealing first hand with Investors in the area who scoff at the idea of 20% being anything close to a deal, while others are more than delighted, and see value in the equity capture here in the high speed and appreciating Austin Market.I'd like to hear some thoughts from everyone...

My team on the ground should have it rehabbed and rented by the end of March barring any surprises.My goal is to get to $3m in SFH holdings under heavy leverage as fast as possible in my target market (Atlanta), and then re-assess goals and paydown speed.

How can I use my time advantage to speed up the buying process without cutting corners?

I have a few other deals to be had, I just need a seasoned investor to guide me along the way, I am not up to speed on all the creative purchasing strategies and what solution best suits each deal, as you well know each purchase has their own unique strategy.

I wish you the best ..God Speed, Michael 

Maybe a 3-4 day $600 class makes sense, but not the full blown $16,000 (and up) training courses like "Note School", from Eddie Speed.  

If for any reason you feel like that's not your cup of tea, read into states you feel are more your speed or interest.

With all the public transportation money being spent - The high speed rail being added from Miami to Orlando International Airport - and the theme parks (that everyone knows Orlando for) the amount of international investment is certainly increasing. 

These courses may speed that process up to some degree, but when you realize that 99% of the people that attend are not going to be successful investors, what did you really gain?
