good evening everyone!                  

People, even in this economy, would give you a healthy penny for it. 

Most people don't even lock their doors.as my brother once said, Florida is a poor man's Hawaii

Even Do Hard Money that advertised 100% 100% you had to spend 3k on their training materials up front and spend 600.00 per loan submission.. so you needed up front money and also have to advance on the draws..

Hi guys, I am self employed with no proof of W2s, i make a living buying cars at dealer auctions and leaving them on a local used car lot on consignment, I have $30k liquid and around $90k tied up in my current vehicles, usually my  vehicle inventory is sub 11, I want to get into the real estate game but in my situation im guessing its hard to get a good deal in getting a loan, I am single, no debt or responsibilities , ideally i would like to start with a single family home but in the current market so high i would even consider condos/town homes.

Though I have catering experience and my wife has assisted living experience.

If you buy the right property you can even reduce the new COR rate if you apply some of the NOI cash flow to the higher rate payment each month.Similar to a Bi-weekly payment it reduces the years owed and the overall rate by accelerating the payoff.

I lived in Saint Louis for most of my 20s (and grew up in the general area), but even after being gone for over 10 years, I wouldn't trust my ability to pick locations outside of the no brainer A-B areas.I hit my FI number and have left my "golden cuffs"; I don't know your situation, but I what I can probably promise you is that it is going to take longer and be more difficult than you expect. 

I would recommend searching through the different tools available on BiggerPockets and you could even use these forums to find local RE investor meetups.

But 99% of folks here strictly look at numbers and never realize why numbers fit even in such financial environments.There's moderate demand for rentals, no reason to pause or concern yourself on why it's vacant.
