Hello BP NY - I'm seeking a home inspector recommendation in Binghamton, NY.

All of this assumes you have time and the desire to seek out your own investment properties.

The person you are seeking is someone who doesn't know what can happen if things go wrong. 

True professionals have valuable information, and are most likely charging for it.If you find someone who is where you want to be, put in the work to study them, watch what they do, listen to what they say, pay for information they have.The first step to success is to train your brain to seek information then take action,  not to wait for it to come to you.
