I'd recommend going to some local meet up events in Philly - great way to connect with other investors.

Join your local REIA and attend the meetings, get out to networking events, and introduce yourself to people in the game.Also set a goal for your first investment.

In the case of a used stove or hiring a handyman, a written bill of sale or invoice can serve as evidence of the transaction and may be helpful if you need to prove the legitimacy of the expense in the event of an IRS audit.However, it's important to note that a bill of sale or invoice is not a guarantee that the expense will be allowed as a write-off.

Beyond the Monthly Management, Placement & Maintenance fees, all other fees in our contract are IF EVENT -> THEN fees.

Is there a way to do a deed transfer without it being a taxable event?

But for the best mentorship, I recommend to find someone local to you through events, meetups, and networking events.

I've only been to networking events put on by a few groups. 

Hello Jeffrey, I would love to participate in this event!
