I have two paths forward to get my first deal done, and I'd love to tap into the collective wisdom of the BP community for feedback.Option 1: Buy my own small multifamily (2-4 units)However, it's been difficult to find actual "deals" and candidly I haven't put in the effort to go all out, with direct mail, digital ads, out of state owners, etc. mostly just working with brokers and looking at the various online sources. 

Didn't you post this:William Clark's StatementWhere you said this:After a lot of reading and watching videos (besides this being common sense from my point of view) is that I need to bring something of value to the table.

I spend extra time when I'm spending money to make sure I get the best value from that purchase.Example, new TV 3k, other places 2500, few other online retailers 1800.

@Bob Huggins My main online marketing for that target group is through Craigslist, nothing else. 

Lot's of online tools to help you learn more about crime, medium income, demographic data, and etc.

I am working with an agent to buy a property and when I was searching online I found a property my agent has listed.

@Brandon Ness not that this helps your situation, but are you allowed to force the tenant to use an online payment system?
