I eventually ended up using my lender (who pre-approved me).Due diligence, I looked up Wise's blog ensuring this was not in D or F zone.

Data storage?

I've realized that when I am with friends I tend to talk about real estate related topics so often that I need to find more like-minded people (to ensure I keep all of my friends haha). 

Don’t trust any automated screening without verifying the data put on the application is correct. 

Once you ensure you can secure a property via a hard money lender (you will most likely have to bring 10-20% of the cost + rehab), you can start your deal hunt.

I cross check that against what my realtor and other local folks I have relationships with tell me about where the neighborhood is trending, as well as rent-o-meter and searching for high-level rental data/trends.

I am selling it turn-key with everything that is in it currently and will ensure a streamlined transition for the new owner. 

Proven fact backed by tons of research and data.

Also, I would recommend periodic (3-6 months) walkthru of the property to validate safety and ensure tenant is following the rules.
