So after I factor in costs for vacancy, man't, reserves, etc. if I am getting my desired # or better than I am in.I supposed I could also do the probate thing to hunt down off market deals in my area since MLS deal days are gone, but I search for the path of least resistance for my money and my time.   

They typically ask no more of you than to respect their time; follow through on your commitments; and a demonstration of your desire and ability to learn.

Some areas you can’t even get 1% no matter how long you search for deals .

This is one of the joys of having cute little apartments in a desirable area, a lot of my tenants are lovely young people just starting out who will end up making a lot more than me!

It's a very desirable area for the blue collar rentals, so if you can get something that could rent in the $600-$800 range you will be great.

Property type is rare to begin with, and finding one at a wholesale price will be even more rare.I would suggest starting the search now and be willing to look at stuff that's active on the market.

I feel that my skill set could benefit my real estate business.I found BP on YouTube while searching “real estate for beginners” videos and I’m hooked!

You can search this BP and find this information.If you do go the seller financing route, your note will be worth more if you make the effort to make it "institutional grade" and have it serviced.

Having just bought my first property after searching my local market relentlessly for over a year, I can 100% agree with this.

Steph Thomasson, BP wont let me post emails or phone numbers but you can search them pretty easily.
